Did the guy not even watch his viewfinder? What a twat. Here's hoping the Levels filter will help bring it back up again...

the freaking heat!! i sleeped last night naked and still lost about a litre of sweet. hitting the local lake and enjoying cold beer should do the trick.

My lovebird died..... just like that... probably from a heart attack we've had him for like 3 years and he was sposed to live many many more anyways i was playin a game on pc and i heard his wings and then a thud and i went to check and he was lying there in a corner We let him go in the sea in a lil box...

aww so sorry to hear that Nea

thx erika . i feel so bad when i look at his cage and he aint there he was always so playfull and noisy...

Sunburn. IT HURTS! IT HURTS!!

At the same time, how the fuck can it drop to just 12 deg C in the middle of France in June?

It was freezing cold at the 24 hours race. Global warming my arse.

Hey guys.

Thought I would pop in and let you all know I went for my driving test Wednesday...

Sadly I failed. 2 serious and 7 minors.
Apparently I went in the right hand lane without checking my mirrors - but I did!
And the other was a learner turning right at a set of lights. I was coming from the opposite direction so I gave way to him as I was turning right too. I pulled up waited for him to turn and he didn't he went straight ahead and cause I turned in to the right slightly he 'just' managed to get past.
So much for 'indicators'...

Anyway I will rebook, just wont tell anyone I am going in for it again as, I have found people start to take the piss... As of that I am pretty embarassed to tell mates on FB.
Oh wells

aw don't be sad honey , u learn from your mistakes and now u know enough to re take the test when u can and im sure ull suceed.

I find it very very odd how many people have trouble passing the driving exam here on BK. Started driving when I was 15 and got a license with a perfect test @ 16.

Anywho, WAMT is that I procrastinated on a final project and I had to stay up all night to finish it. Boo all-nighters.

I got my driving license when I was 18, that's 12 years ago, and it took me 2 times to get the license. After all these years I can just say that only with hard practice and learning from your mistakes you will get better and better driver. Remember, we have all been there.

Recently I got a truck driving license so now I'm allowed to drive big cars

Try comming to Europe and get one here ...

Excuse me, but indeed. Americans have a low standard when it comes to taking a driving exam. People are way too young to drive a car there anyway...

Driving at 15? Perfect test at 16? Wow.

yeah wtf lol u cant have a a licence here before 18. Tho i have driven at 17 once

Maybe he was actually a very responsible driver at an early age. No I've never taken a driving test in another country but have you'll actually taken a driving test in the US? Not all Americans are Jersey, Asian-American, or elderly drivers. lol

Actually I'm pretty glad its hard to get a licence here...

Thanks Nea. I shall go in for it again and I wont give up with it just yet anyway!

Getting me a Ford Focus for my 1st car for my 21st ties in nicely with the insurance. Hopefully the learning in that will improve my nerves and confidence.


I knew someone who lived in America came from England and went over there then came back few years later. He said that the comparison between the 2 driving tests was a lot. Said it was like driving round a 'block' and you were done! I do beg to differ though I can imagine its a lot more than that. But I suppose in the scheme of things compared to the English test thats what it felt like to him!

Anyhoo... test is a test. I got bollocked by my dad and partner cause I told the Examiner I had trouble with my nerves as I am a very nervous flinchy person, cause of this I get confused under pressure on my left and rights.
Parently I should not of said that, and therefore told me thats prolly why I failed blah blah blah...
All I fuckin' need I fail and I get bollocked / ignored / and the piss taken out of me from so called friends and family! (my nan didnt even care I failed...)
I was expecting a more sympathetic attitude from my loved ones/close mates...
