{Whisper - drive the car and impress the examiner} That'll do the trick!
When you pass, no excuse for not coming up to the meet!

A couple of hindsights from the two tests I failed:
- Attach a video camera to the front of the car so you can point out to the guy afterwards that there was no 30 sign when he failed you for doing 35.
- Keep a box of donuts in the front to appease the generic fat miserable examiner who seemingly wants to fail everyone. In all honesty, he told me when leaving the test centre "Do you have a mirror in the passenger side for me? Cos if you don't then that'll save me the bother of having to walk downstairs".

You need eyes up your back side when doing manovoers, I was doing a reverse round the left. I kept checking all around whilst i was doing it, i turn my head away and a car is behind me and i slam on the brakes and it was too close
OH and the roundabout...... dont get me started on roundabouts
B*ll*x!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There there, at least you didn't get a D for Dangerous Driving (like a major, only worse) on your first test (shudders at the memory). Could've been worse, could have got the box marked 'Test ended in the interests of public safety'!
By some bizarre fluke, I passed second time...

I failed 5 times, I think, I forget if it was 5 or 6. I think I passed the 6th time. I was just unfortunate making stupid mistakes, and the examiners were also being really harsh, and one talked non stop all throughout the test and confused me.
But now I'm a great driver... I've even mastered the art of rolling out of bed, straight into a car and getting ready in the car... breakfast, juice, fag, brushing my hair etc.... oh wait... maybe I shouldn't be proud of that....

Pippin dude, you want to wear a short skirt and give him a nice big wink when he gets in. Worked for me.
