Passed!
I took my car theory test on Saturday morning and passed, woot! :D I wasn't very confident because I only started revising a few days beforehand and not very thoroughly, but I just scraped the multiple choice. 45/50 and the pass-mark is 43, phew!
The hazard perception bit was easy, just like playing a computer game ;) For you old geezers who don't know, you now have to pass the multiple-choice AND the HP to obtain your theory. They show you 14 video-clips from the view of a moving car and you click the mouse whenever you see potential hazards - pedestrians about to cross/run, parked cars blocking views, cars changing direction or doing mad things like reversing into main roads etc. Anything that may cause you to slow down or change direction. They score you on how quickly you spot these.
And I've just realised I've posted about this but not yet about Paris, the convention there and Euro Disney. Oh well, when work and life is less hectic - it can wait!
