So, as you know I moved from Ireland to Australia last year. It will be 12 months in May.
Anyway, in Ireland I let my driving license expire because I was living in town and liked to walk.
So, now that herself is pregnant, she would be finding it hard at times to drive. So, I decided to go for my license. Because I had let my Irish one expire, I had to start from scratch. But, because of my age, would go direct from my Learner Permit to the Green Probationary.
I did the Theory Test today and passed with a 91% Result. Quite happy. So, I got my Learner License.
I will have this for 3 months and then do a driving test to get my Green P Plates. Usually you go to red plates but, as I mentioned, I am over a certain age so I go direct to my Green P's if I pass that test in May.
I took a drive today with herself. Felt great and I enjoyed it.
Made two mistakes.
1. I failed to stop for a pedestrian.
2. I forgot my turn and decided to turn at the last minute instead of driving on and doing a U-Turn where possible. Result was, I cut in front of another car. But fair play to the bloke, he eased off and gave me room to go in front of him to take the turn.
But, I am happy to be back driving. Always loved it.
Just said I would share that with all you good people. And also to inform the people of Bendigo, VIC, to feckin brace yourselves and stay off the footpaths. :lol:
