I had my first driving lesson yesterday. I started lessons about three and a half years ago, but I really didn't get on with my instructor and felt the few lessons I did have weren't going anywhere. I have now, finally, got the money to restart. I have gone with a female instructor this time, and she is lovely. Really patient and friendly, and the car is really comfortable to drive. We refreshed the basics and covered what I could remember (not a lot!). Once we started I was just doing some basic going forward, stopping, turning left and right and then we progressed into the slightly more advanced signalling before turning, second gear, clutch control/ever so slight hill start and reversing in a straight line. Next lesson we are going on the roads! Its all exciting! I keep looking at cars for sale but I think I need to save some money up before I can...
I have also been thinking about maybe doing some A-Levels or something on a distance course as although my dreams of Uni have pretty much dissipated, A-levels are going to look better on my CV than just GCSE's, right? Not entirely sure what subjects I would go for, probably the basics like English and Science. I'm not brilliant at Maths so probably would steer clear on that, I got a C in my GCSE so that's good enough for me! Or maybe a National Diploma rather than A-Levels. Hmm... Options.
Always good to have options!
