Morning

[BrilloPad]

We're currently (ha!) having periodic dips in the power, on one phase judging by the effects.

Is that when you force the fingers of esteemed customers into the fuse box?

I would if there were any around.

Hopefully won't see any until September, though a couple may pop in to say byeeeeee after graduation.

I have no Idea what a Mod 2 exam is, but congrats and welcome to the Biking Fraternity

When I took my bike test about 35+ years ago, it was twice round the block and do an emergency stop without skidding or falling off when the examiner stepped off the kerb and waved his clipboard

Thanks Diver!

Mod 2 is a 40 min drive around followed by an Examiner.

5 faults (out of a max permissible 11) though – all in the first 10-15 mins! It all fell apart on the very first min – I got off the bike and said I couldn’t hear him on the radio – he said it was a bit dodgy around the starting area. Well, I was a bag of nerves after that, couldn’t focus – missed what he said about parking in front of a car…then I thought I’d failed so I gave up and just biked normally!

Well, I passed – he said all faults were in first 10-15mins and then he said, after that you drove well! Well done!

I had a catalogue of intangibles – slow mopeds in front of me on a dual carriageway – I had to overtake, he marked me down for hesitating, lorries and cars pulling out on me, a lorry trundling down a narrow road opposite me when I was turning right forcing me on the other side…. The list went on and on – it was like appearing on The Truman Show it was that comical!
