A friend is learning to drive. Now in New South Wales, once you have your Learner's permit you need to drive for a certain number of hours in a variety of conditions before you can actually take the driving test. She has been doing the big trips with her partner but has asked me to come with to practice 3-point turns, parallel parking and the like so we have been out for a couple of times to do just that.
It is an honor that she trust me and has asked me. It is confronting to have to manually think about everything that I now do automatically (fortunately Miss L does have a 'real' instructor, she is just practicing with me). It is fun to spend time with each other. It is a little disappointing (from a purely selfish perspective) that she will have her licence soon and this moment too will have passed.
Maybe it is more important that the moment happened ....

so when you coming to teach RAH RAH, he's now managed to p-off both parents and only has 11 of 120 hours up ... sighs
well being that I am not actually teaching but more like being a 'constructive' passenger, if that works for you, let me know when he is ready. does he want to drive to Byron on Sunday - that will get bump up the hours :-)
"once you have your Learner's permit you need to drive for a certain number of hours in a variety of conditions before you can actually take the driving test." I love to try this examination.
