*hugs* Naama, I failed three times so far (and that was before we introduced
a written test so now I have to sit both when I get around to trying again).

And to Silverthorne - parallel parking I could do, it was the reversing
around a corner manoeuvre that got me each time. I could do the same thing
into a parking space (because I can see the cars either side of me and know
what I have to line up with) but being really short I can't see the darn
kerb that I'm supposed to be parallel with when I stop. I've never seen
anyone need to reverse around a corner and end up parallel with the kerb
anyway, most times if you reverse around a corner you're in the middle of
turning around.

*grumble* Unfortunately they won't let you do the manoeuvre into a parking
space because they don't like to let learners too near anyone else's car :)
