Driving again.
Thursday, May 01st 2008 at 02:23am.
Hmm, I never really thought much about learning to drive again due to my financial situation, and by situation I basically mean I have no monies. 
I decided to phone up BSM and book a few lessons in on a weekly basis since I can’t afford to bulk buy, and I have my second first lesson next Friday, the 9th of May.
Having been with a self-employed driving instructor before I quickly decided not to do it again, I know they’re cheaper but you can’t put a price on passing really. Well, £60* for the test and something around £1500 for lessons. 
So all in all it’s going to be an expensive venture, again! /stabs
Can’t say I’m itching to drive a Corsa though, pftt. But they are small and nippy, so we’ll see how it goes.
*Someone bumped the price up since the last time I went. I like it how every company thinks everyone has access to bottomless pits of money.

Well I once again had my first lesson yesterday.
I can’t say it went perfect with a few minor errors and stuff, since I haven’t drove for nine months.
This instructor seems a lot better than my previous one, so all should work out this time. Since I’ve booked two hour lessons each time it gives me a bit of room to do things and remember them, instead of forgetting as soon as I get home.
The Corsa was decent to drive, I had no initial worries with it so the driving will be smoother.
My next lesson is next Friday, 5pm till 7pm again.
