Ive had it before when ive talked about the speeds i do on the motorbike yeah.... a huge 5mph over the 40mph limit for a whole two minutes then i slowed down
That is almost troll like, if you cannot control your speed whilst on your test, what hope is there later.

will try my hardest to keep quite actually no sod it i wont.Were you in the car at the time? NO. Do you know the whole situation as to how/why i was speeding for a whole two minutes at 5mph over the limit? NO.
As i was coming out of a 50mph zone into a bit of a built up area with unclear signs i thought it was appropiate to slow down a little, it was when i saw a clear sign for 40mph that i slowed down. My examiner talked to me about this when we got back to the test centre and understood why i was speeding a little but he had to put it down as a minor.
The examiner thought that my driving was well up to scratch and even complimented me on how relaxed the test and the drive was.
Just to pee you off that little bit more.... i dont have a modified 600cc sports bike and a 800cc sports tourer to bimble around town on.. On open roads, with no other road users around, in the middle of nowhere i happily open the throttle and do quite some speed
do i care? no.

Looking back now, it was the best thing thats ever happened to me. Im alot happier in general and making more money than i ever would have doing warehousing. I get to spend more time with GF and more time out on the bike
as everyone is closing shutters for winter im picking up as much contract work as i can to keep me going through winter and well into next year Next step is getting a proper workshop to base myself from.

Bang on right I was not in the car, I was also not the one who said I was speeding on my test.

This has made me smile. My retirement is but 3 months away and I've decide I'm going to buy a small van and be a part time painter and decorator. I know a guy who's recently done the same but full time and he's having to turn work away, nor than he can handle so, I may sub for him a bit.

If you do the job well there will always be people who will pay for your services.
When I move into a proper workshop its highly likely that Im going to need to take on a apprentice to manage the amount of work im getting. Ive just cleared the waiting list i had and now another one is building up.
