Yeah, instructor says I have nothing to worry about whatsoever lol... Just scarey isn't it... Bet every young lad doing it feels the same lol.. it's at 3 pm... So can go two ways...

1. Examiner wants to get last test over and done with.. Also, could be stuck in alot of traffic...

2. Some penis pulling out on me or whatever and cocking it up for me.. So we will see!

Yeah good thinking mate, my mate passed yesterday... He say his examiner put a cross through a box at the top, so thought, oh well, I've failed, then relaxed abit, cause this was his third time... But passed with 4 minors..

I'd keep as calm as you can, concentrate very hard on the test and ensure that you keep checking your mirrors every couple of seconds, take your time with manoeveurs (sp) I know it sounds silly but make sure you watch your speed as well I remember just going slightly over (about 2mph IIRC) and I received a minor for it
