    You can imagine what a crushing blow this would have been to a super keen 16 year old. I think when he had buggered off it got a bit of a shoeing.

    That's a shame PJ. Not long to wait though, just think of today as a practice. Good luck for the 11th :)

    Dont worry about it. The reason i said Mod 2 is easier was that i enjoyed mine after failing Mod 1, 3 times! Relax, take it easy. take your time. They are far more likely to be stricter with what they percieve as over confidence.

    So frustrating, but again whilst inconvenient etc it’s only a week postponement

    All of the angst becomes a very distant memory as soon as you have that new licence in your mitts!!

    Big sigh!!!! :triumph: Another major, going too slow in a 30 zone.. ffs
    Here’s hoping it’s 3rd time lucky, a little deflated as I thought after last time I’d be ok. Same examiner as well.
    Oh well, I go again in a few weeks ;)
