    I heard a rumour that you get an automatic pass if you manage to hit a Redcoat.

    Congratulations on the passing. I passed 3rd time with 6 minors. I hate driving.
    Not around too often!

    the tricky part is hitting an actual Redcoat and not just some random person wearing a red coat

    Iv'e only got parrallel parking to master ( Bah i hate it!!! ) then i'm ready to take the test.... i havent done my theory yet, going to do it after Christmas just havent got the time at the mo, Jon wants to do his Bike Theory too so i thought it would make sense to go down together

    The test centre here has a waiting list until the end of Jan, i'm not bothered if i have to wait until March/April when i do mine just means more experience which will give me more chance of passing

    aye same, outside here you have to parallel park, or do what the people up stairs do and invent parking spaces on the pavement...
