Just had 3 refresher courses for my driving this week after not having driven for years and had lost my confidence. Tonight (my last lesson) I drove on the M5 in holiday traffic, overtaking lorries and boats (it was on a trailer) and caravans and things. Also reversed parked between 2 cars. WOW :-))))))))))))))))))))))))

I'm determined to go out at least once a week now, more if I can (hubby uses the car for work) - not too sure about the multi storey car park though - the bends are a bit on the tight side - but I'm going to give it a go :-))))

Hi Esta, another one who knows the M5 - it was BRILLIANT :-)))) Only got told off once for speeding.

Esta

Esta Report 13 Apr 2006 19:23

Speeding !!.........Obviously you didn't go anywhere near the M5 Bridge as I've been watching it all day and it's just about moving.....no danger of speeding there ...........lol x

Trish

Trish Report 13 Apr 2006 19:31

Esta, no - it was junction 21 and 22 (or is it 21 and 20) From J 21 and south anyway - and back again of course. :-))

Daniel

Daniel Report 13 Apr 2006 19:35

*Thinks Esta should get out more :-)*

Trish

Trish Report 13 Apr 2006 19:38

I'm with Esta on this Daniel. I love watching the traffic on the motorway when it's nearly stopped. For some reason I find it fascinating - and also wonder why they got on in the first place. They should know by now what it will be like at certain times.
