    I took my driving test for the 2nd time this afternoon and passed it. I am so bouncy I just had to tell someone as I haven't been able to get my Mum on the phone. I can't stop smiling. Haven't decided yet where I'm going to go to celebrate.

    Congratulations Mrs Bobs. [​IMG] [​IMG]

    I failed my UK driving test the first time, having an American license from two States for ten years! [​IMG] I'm sure in England you have to learn to pass the test, then drive! :D

    Enjoy yourself whatever you decide to do! [​IMG]

    Congratulations and well done Mrs Bobs on passing your test on your 2nd attempt [​IMG] [​IMG]

    It took me two attempts but mine was 25 years apart because I lost my confidence after failing it the first time.I love driving,though my husband is always a back seat driver,so I prefere to be on my own [​IMG] :eek:

    That's great Mrs Bobs. Can remember how pleased I was when I passed first
    time - about 30 years ago. Don't know what I would do if I wasn't able to drive
    out and about!

    Enjoy!! [​IMG]

    I'm just so happy. Since moving out of London I've felt trapped in the house all the time as I had to rely on the bus to get anywhere. Now I can go to the cinema again. My number one most favourite thing that I haven't been able to do since last July.
