Well, the count down is on. Our time in the UK is growing shorter by the day. The list is ever growing of things to see and things that we have to get done.
For Super Handome and I we desperately need to get our driver’s licenses. Sounds a bit mad, right? I wish. In the UK, they will only trade licenses with a few countries. So, we knew that we needed to get our licenses. France will take some of the licenses from the US, but only select states.
Sadly, Super Handsome and I do not hold a license in any of those states. It is indeed a sad, sad day for the drivers in the Beary household. Our options are to get our UK license and then trade it for a French license, which is preferable (and cheaper) then getting the French license and having to have an interpreter. So, well do the easier version and take care of while we are here.
One of my American friends just went through the process herself and she passed both the theory test and the driving test! Yay!!!! for my friend! I was really relieved to hear of her success. There are practice tests that are available to take online. I went and tried one out without studying and while I did not pass, you have to achieve 43 out of 50, I was not too far off as I scored a 39. I am confident that with a little studying, success will be mine as well.
I am off to schedule my theory test! I have to pass it first before I can take the driving version. Wish me luck! I’ll let you know when I pass!
Here are some of the things I see when I drive...

I’m glad it is not a rude notice!
