By this lesson, lesson 6, things are starting to ease out a lot more. It's all becoming the same thing as last week but without the decency to becoming monotomous. This drive was just a simple recap of what I've basically done with more of what I did last week - The turning in the road. Simple stuff. Nothing out of the blue. Reversing out of a parking space was probably the most adventurous thing. Oh and the S word. I stalled whilst trying to turn but that's no biggy, everyone does it! And if they don't, then they should to make me feel better. Even so, this feels more disappointing than not learning the new skill I was expecting.
Another thing I noticed in this lesson isn't really a something that can be taught. It happens naturally and that's courtesy. After the first 20 minutes behind the wheel I got overtaken by some fool in a jumped up Saxo for them to get stopped by the lights. He was in the wrong (or she - I didn't the driver) for overtaking me as we all know that the L plates on the front and rear mean OVERTAKE ME FOR GOD'S SAKE! But once he had gone it's like a beam of light appeared and everyone else found enlightenment. Everyone started to have more courtesy and I was getting waved on and thanks and waited for. It's a good feeling. And of course my attitude is like thiers. I wait and wave them thanks. Everyone's a happy chappy and that makes better roads. And it makes me a better driver!
