Well - I passed it! :-)
Very pleased indeed, and got through the final stage (module 2) with no minor faults at all, including the newly introduced independent riding section.
I 'thought' I had failed it. I was asked to pull over, and did so - a little distance before a left-hand turn and the instructor instantly said no not there, pull out again and go to the other side of the junction. I thought any move which means he instantly tells me to go somewhere else has got to be a fail, a little harsh but hey.
Turned out all it was was that he didnt have enough room to pull up behind as someone was leaving their driveway.. The good bit was that having thought I had failed, I simply relaxed into the driving for the next 45 minutes.
It's taken a good number of weeks to complete this, and it's been expensive (about £775 worth of training / tests)- I'm very happy to be through it!
Oh, and between passing the test and bedtime last night, I managed to put about 220 miles onto the bike :-)
Let the good times roll!
Thanks all for your support
