At last

After four and half years of riding around on my 'trusty steed' (my little blue Yamaha YBR125) I finally passed all three part of the bike test, and am now allowed to ditch the L plates! (and get a bigger bike hehe) Was supposed to do the Module 2 test last Monday, but it was rescheduled so another night of no sleep, and lots more practice in Burton over the weekend, and.. it all paid off.

Lots and lots of prayer, from me and mates at Beacon (the ones I dared to tell) and the vicar of Burton Baptist (long story).. they were all answered. Stayed calm, did a nice route, knew where to go, and there was no way I was messing up the awkward roundabout again after the trainer swore at me on it last week. Almost enjoyed the ride, and it seemed so short. Have got to know Burton so well that I nearly laughed when he said 'follow the signs to A38 Litchfield', and thought nah, we can't be done already when we headed back to the test centre after what seemed like only 5 minutes.

So, after work I burned the L plates hehe

And tomorrow I'm off to Arnolds. Though sadly can probably only afford a keyring.

Just ordered my Christmas pressie from Uncle Chalkie... I'll never have the money for a real one so I guess I'll just have to settle for a LEGO Splittie hehe

Numb Bum

After 4 hours solid on the bike last night practicing around Burton with Gary ready for the rescheduled test on Monday. Have spent a lot of time on the bike recently. Hope it pays off. I guess I have to trust that the prayers will be answered.. that God will be on the back of the bike telling me where to go.

No co-incidence that on Monday Gary pulled into the car park of the Methodist church in Burton just after he had sworn at me for making a mistake on a roundabout. They went to the cafe next door for tea. I went in the church and three lovely ladies prayed for me!

More practice later today. For now I need to order my Christmas present from Chalkie, and try to make some headway into the disorganised state of the flat and the aim of a car boot sale next weekend.

I can do all things..

.. Through Him who gives me strength.
Passed my Module 1 test today. Chuffed feeling short-lived as rapidly replaced by stress about Mod 2!

Naughty Bumble

Really didn't deserve to have his polishing finished after three hours stuck in Shelly cause he wouldn't start. Pops and the breakdown man think it may be wiring to or a relay or solenoid to do with the fuel injection.

Not happy that he made me miss playing kinect with Josh, but TGF having Biccies and a book in the van (and a mat and pillow for a small nap hehe)
