Went for a second interview today for an internal move. Got offered the job, so soon I'll be working back in central London :) Covent Garden to be precise.

Congrats! :scarf:

Not a bad day. Got to go home at lunch from school so had all afternoon watching the tele and preparing myself for tonights 5-a-side game :)

Also got shouted at by some random guy in a car "YOUU FURRRKIN GINNNA", really don't understand what possesses somebody to do that? At least the last time some stranger had a go at my hair he came out with something funny.."Wow, i wasn't expecting to see the sun today!" which was quite clever for a chav to be honest.

Going home at lunch?! Some people do nothing , they really do.

More ginger comments was it! Fully deserved I think though, I'm sure you'll get a few more at the weekend!

Well done, Convent Garden is a very nice place. Although I swear that's the station with a million steps lol.

Congrats! :scarf:

Cheers! And yeah, Covent Garden has a million steps. Planning to cycle to work to avoid that!

Failed my second driving test today.

Pretty devastating, considering I only had one minor.

I've appealed because I think it was harsh, and the instructor said he'd spent the rest of the drive (following the major) deciding whether my near-on flawless drive other than that deserved a pass, eventually deciding it didn't.

Not sure what good appealing will do, but I guess it's worth a try.

You've caught your driving test centre at the wrong time. Unfortunately they have a quota system for the number of passes, so if in the previous period or month they have had above average number of passes, the follwoing period they have to lower the number to balance it out!!

I think you should complain, let us know how you got on!!

Bought a new car.

It's the same as the old one but with half the miles and in a far far better condition.

Bloody awful. Went out 3 places before the money kicked in in a poker tournament. AK suited beaten by J9. Nobhead flopped a full house. I'll feel a lot better tomorrow though when we batter QPR :scarf:

What did you do?

Slight roundabout lane error. On reflection, yeah, it was a major. But I was so fautless other than that, and it's not like I'll make that mistake every time -I 've learned from it y'know?

Oh, and bit random but I saw Ajcw out and about tonight. He'll probably wonder who the little tit was who stopped and gazed at him in amazement, and well, that was me. Seemed to have a nice female as company too, good on him.

I failed mine while having 0 minors, and the major was down to inexperience rather than actual bad driving (well in my opinion), still, he failed me. <_<

1 major with only 1 minor is harsh and I know people who have been let off with it. However (this is no reflection on you by the way) I don't half wish the driving test's were harder, more thorough and motorway driving manditory. The amount of plebs on the road grows every day, is ridiculous. A re-test for when you pass 50 would be useful too.

Yeah, I know quite a lot of people who've been ticked on a major but still passed because of a reasonable overall drive - just a bit frustration I wasn't one of them on this occasion. Not like I need hundreds more lessons either, a case of rebooking and having another crack and I should be okay.

Yep, totally agree.

The standard of driving encountered on a more or less daily basis is absolutely awful.
