Baby I can drive your car*

Yes, it's official - I am now legally at large on the highways and byways of Britain. Be afraid, be very afraid. And to think that it only took 16 years and cost the equivalent of the GDP of Wales...

Apparently neither clipping a curb when turning a corner nor nosing out at a junction so that successive buses have to indicate and swerve to avoid you are considered major faults these days. I also managed to get away with a wonky reverse around the corner and a stall when attempting to pull away from a "convenient place". Still, they can't take it back now! (Except they can - must remember that the object of this game is NOT to collect points.)

OK - mirror, signal, manoeuvre and off we go...

* On the condition that I'm insured on it, that is.
