Well, I got the first lesson out the way, and it went alright. :)
The build-up to it is what I hated the most, I had such a nervous stomach ache I almost felt ill :? But once I met the woman instructor (fortunately she was nice and friendly... and patient) I started to relax a little. I done the lesson just up my road which wasn't too bad considering I know the area, and the lesson consisted of just getting to know all the pedals, and what everything does.
But then the bit I was not looking forward to arrived - having to actually drive. I was thinking to myself that I just can't do this, and the amount of information you have to keep in mind was unbelievable. I didn't realise how complicated it all was, especially when I see my Dad or Mum drive, it looks so easy, but not when you haven't done it before. Sometimes I was trying to focus on timing when to release an press the clutch pedal that I'd briefly forget steering... but only briefly... I didn't manage to ruin anyone's day :P
It lasted an hour, and for the next lesson on Monday, I'll feel a little more confident in myself (I only stalled the car once!), and so yeah.. I got it over and done with :)
