This morning I had driving lesson number
6, or there abouts. I did pretty well... of course I was shaking
and nervous all morning and had to gulp down some rescue remedy
before joining Mario, my driving instructor. Did you know
that rescue remedy is preserved in rum? As a learner I really
should avoid all alcohol before driving but I don't know if
I can manage without my pre-driving lesson routine of a big
glass of water and a few drops of rescue remedy before I face
the highways and the byways. Mario told me that I am doing
very well. All I have to watch now is my speed, as I tend
to break the limit. This always comes as a shock to me as
I am so busy worrying that I am the worst, most embarrassing
driver on the road. When I glance down at the speedometer
and see the little stick waggling around 65km/h I can hardly
believe it. "Watch your speed...." Mario says in
warning tones. Also I am not very good at slowing down when
going around corners... who would have thought?
