Clean slate.....and then I touched the kerb when reversing around the parked car...and then failed Been told don't need anymore lessons....just luck and need to get a cancellation asap

taka

Awwwhhh! ((((Hugs)))) Donna... thats what my mum did too! She passed next time no probs tho. Any idea how long till you can resit?

donner_kebab

Thanks Taka! I am going to look for a cancellation and the earliest I can take if they have any is 10 days as you cannot take one sooner following a failure. I will look tonight when I get home. Glad as no more lessons just the fact that it will cost me about £80 to take the resit. Gutted but I know that it will be money well spent (and it is not often I can say that!). I know I can do it...if only he saw me before the test...I had it down to a 'T'.....Grrrrrrr. I want to cry but no point Gonna go home and have some chocolate.

taka

Medicinal choc definitely a necessity! Yummmmmmmmm!!

Thanks guys. I soooo hope it is third time lucky Just got home and had a letter from Egg telling me they have cancelled my card. Heard they had been getting rid of peeps left, right and centre. Looks like that includes me then! Oh well.....what a shame.....NOT!

(((((Donna)))) Never mind hun next time. I passed 3rd time and didn't have a single minor mark when I passed. Fingers crossed for the next time and don't get too down about it

donner_kebab

Thanks Sallyx! What a mare eh? There are soooo many crazy loons out there on the roads...takes the mick...oh well. Must just get on and rebook I suppose. Hopefully I can get a cancellation soon. My stepmum said her daughter failed 6 times before she passed...hope I can pass before that! I just feel soooo down about the whole thing, thought it was all going so well. Right that's the end of that! I am sat here having a drink and just chilling out! Was so upset earlier I nearly sucummbed to a take away but am proud that I didn't! Couldn't face eating anything so forced myself to eat a bit of toast. I am gonna bin those take away menus so even if I felt the urge, I couldn't! My wallet feels all the better for it! At least I have tomorrow off, so am gonna apply for the Abbey card as have all my credit records back now. Am not gonna mention any balance transfer and see what they offer...if anything! At least with no Egg card I am one down than before! I am gonna get some help with regards to what ones would be best to try amd transfer, but last time I applied for a card I only got £1,100 credit so hope they will offer me a bit more this time. What a hoo haa :rolleyes: Hope everyone is having a better time than me! xxx

Whoop whoop! Just found out that my Gas and Elec peeps are cutting my Direct Debit down to £55 per month when before it was £61.50 so that's a £6.50 saved a month as my account is in quite a bit of credit! Yay...that's something! But I suppose with the prices going up, I will end up oweing them somewhere along the line! But for now it's all good! Have been trying to apply for the Abbey card this morning but the form page on the website is down....Grrrr! Get it sorted Abbey!
