MrGrumpy takes his driving test

Beep Beep Beep went MrIPod at 5:45am and MrGrumpy hit the snooze option at least twice before climbing out of bed.

After getting ready he realised that he had no milk or orange juice, so it was either a yogurt or bottle of beer for breakfast today, as he was about to take is driving test, yogurt it was.

MrGrumpy arrived at MrDMV in good time, there was already quite a queue and it was only 7:20am. At 8:00am the doors opened and the queue for tests goes in first. MrGrumpy was second in line, it was not long before he headed out to get the Mustang and start the test.

MrsMammyTwoShoes was to be his examiner, the test did not start too well when MrGrumpy used English hand signals and not the US ones... MrGrumpy put this behind him and concentrated on the test, about 20 mins later he returned to the DMV and parked. He was then informed that he should leave more space all around the car and needed to look over his shoulder to ensure there was nothing in his blind spot. MrGrumpy did not argue with any of this and was please to find he had passed (with the 4 minor errors, 15 or less is a pass).

  1. Strewth mate, you have hand signals in the UK, I didn't know that I've been let loose on the roads in UK for the last 12 years.

    Mind you it only cost me a 20 quid to get my kiwi licence changed to a full UK licence and that allows me to drive tracked vehicles and steam engines....

    Hope everything's going ok in the land of the fruity yanks..

    Scouse Kiwi...
