Driving lesson two

[allana]

Just back from lesson two :D I'm thoroughly enjoying it and I seem to be doing well according to Sarah. Yay! I can move off v.smoothly and stop pretty smoothly too. I still hate the brakes on her car, but I'm getting used to them. Changing gears is just fine too, and I can control the car well. Next week I get to go out onto the main road (complete with buses!) and practice turning left and emerging left. I think I'm going to buy a training CD for the theory test that includes hazard perception footage and try to get the theory test out of the way before March.... I'm beginning to think that I might turn into a half-decent driver.

In other news, my hands are almost normal now. They do get sore if I lift heavy stuff but I can live with that. Muses are still AWOL but I'm taking the opportunity to catch up on my reading!

Oh that's weird. Only posted second comment because the first one didn't show up...then they both did. *Feels stupid* I'm telling you, it is not my day.

I'm just feeling doubly loved :D *hugs*

As for taking to it quickly - remember that I had a whole bunch of lessons 10 years ago, and a bit of practice playing driving games since then ;) There's a lot to be said for my instructor, Sarah, though - and I have you to thank for that!!

Oh, if you ever need any help sleeping, I have discovered the cure for insomnia... the Government's Driving Skills manual. Very dry.
