D- Day

I wasn't going to blog about this until after the event but ... my son takes his driver's license test at 10am this morning. I don't know who is more nervous, him or me.

The examiners at this test center are freakily perfectionistic, impossibly picky, totally demanding and will fail you - on the spot - if you roll back even 1 cm during your three-point turn. (It happened to the student who was there when we went for the practice drive last Wednesday morning - she didn't even get out on the road!)

So my boy, who is basically a good driver, is a bit anxious, to say the least. As is his mother.

More later.
