Passing a Driving Test in the UK

Young people in England find it so hard these days to pass a driving test or at least my son did. He failed
three driving tests over the last two years since he has been learning to drive. Do you know anyone who has been trying to pass their driving test?

When my son was 18 years old, he started to learn to drive and when he was 20 he passed his theory test. After that he booked a driving test, but failed the first, second and third test, but he was still determined that he should pass.

So, we suggested that he buy a car to learn to drive in. He bought a seven year old car, which is a Renault Clio and started to drive it everywhere with someone sitting next to him (either myself or his Dad). This gave him so much more confidence. During his driving tests, his confidence was always so low and he would be terribly nervous.

He booked his fourth driving test, which was on Friday 25th April and he has now passed it. We were so relieved too and very happy for him. He is now 21 years old and he can now drive his own car without someone sitting next to him.

Do you know anyone learning to drive at present? How long did it take them to pass their test?

Have You Ever Had Knee Arthroscopy Surgery?

Have you ever had Arthroscopy surgery of the knee before? I have just had this done. The reason why I had  this done was because I fell over two years ago and damaged the cartilage inside my knee along with the ligaments in my left leg. I had to have Arthroscopy (keyhole surgery) on my left knee, which took place last Saturday and it has  left me in a bit of pain, so I haven't been here that much lately. Arthroscopy is a type of keyhole surgery where they make two incisions in the knee under general  anaesthetic (being put to sleep). I had to stay in hospital for one night just because my blood pressure was very low after the surgery and I found that I couldn't wake up very well after having the anaesthetic. The hospital gave me some instructions to do physiotherapy exercises, which I do 5 times per day. This is to prevent Deep Vein Thrombosis occurring in my leg, where the leg can swell up and give you a blood clot. At present, I am in a little pain, but...
