and after no driving for 15 years managed to successfully take it home through the London rush hour in the dark without my glasses.

woohoo!

yay!

Congrats, Ana! Did you say why you are buying a car now, after not having one for so long?

i moved house, Alanna. I used to be 5mins walk from the shops and 20 mins walk from work.

No i am 45 mins via bus, and two trains from work (which costs ~£105 per month) and 30 mins by bus from the shops.

oooh. That makes sense then. Enjoy your new (fixed) car!

I wouldn't get in the car with her....

why not?

You haven't driven in YEARS! You should be re-tested!

Its like riding a bike!

I bet you've gone into 5th gear when you meant 3rd....

I haven't got above 3rd gear yet, but i've only been out when it was busy.

Um you haven't been above third gear yet?!
