Well I had my test today at 9:15am and went out all confident without a nerve in my body. I had a pre-test with Liam Quinlan last night and he was absolutely fantastic, couldn't recommened the fella highly enough. I knew the route like the back of my hand and had it all down to a tee.

I worked hard on all of the bits and pieces and it paid off - I was out the gap with a fully clean test sheet, not a Grade 1, 2 or 3 to my name!

Here starts the two year countdown...

The cherry on top was the sheet being free of errors! I wasn't expecting that at all!

Delighted for you Fabio. Congratulations.

Marian also got a clean sheet when she passed her test. Apparently this entitles the holder to go on about it for years afterwards and look down their nose at the rest of us mere mortals :lol2:

Seriously though, it's a great achievement.
