    I did hill starts!!! Ok, I wasn't meant to do a hill start but had to stop on a slight hill to let oncoming traffic pass so he taught me hill starts! Also, for the first time EVER, I didn't stall after having to stop at a roundabout!!! I always stalled with her but today I got it right! I'm so chuffed!!!


    Oh!!! And I drove in fog!!!!

    So am I! He lets me lead. He's got me to change my hanď position on the wheel as I was gripping it too tight and it was affecting my steering. I did things wrong and he told me why they were wrong and then asked me how to correct it. He taught me braking in detail today so that feels clearer, and he's asked me if there's anything I want to change or if I feel ready to start doing more. I've actually volunteered to start doing junctions next week!! And no propranolol again!!!!

    And my gear changes were so much smoother!!!!

    WELL DONE YOU!!! That's amazing. You must be so proud of yourself. I hope you've told yourself that a million times.

    I don't think I'm doing anything amazing, I'm just not letting my anxiety control me

    Believe me, that’s pretty amazing and not something I manage very often ....
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I still have moments of panic, but the way Bob responds to my mistakes makes it so much easier to manage. The only reason I'm learning is because not being able to drive will pretty much strand me in the village.
