On my phone, when you send a text and then go back to the home page/do something else then go back into texts, it stays on the message conversation of the last person you messaged. I don't text many people and 99% of the time it's on my husbands message convo.

I've got my driving test tomorrow morning and my instructor has just text me to say he isn't very well and likely to have to postpone my test which could be another 8 weeks away now. Not instructors fault but I'm angry/upset as I'm going to have to pay again, too late to cancel now.

Anyway, I've text my husband (at work) and told him. I called instructor a few names as not been happy with him for few weeks but didn't want change instructor with being so close to test. Except I sent the text to my instructor and not my husband. Bollocks.

Good luck for tomorrow! So glad you managed to find a car :)

CadburyMellos · 03/04/2017 07:05

Ha my instructor isn't called Dave lol, his name is actually really unusual hence me using a pretend name.

And thanks... I'm trying not to think about my test.

Well done! Maybe an apology to Dave might be in order though?

TheMerryWidow1 · 03/04/2017 14:48

brilliant news well done, will you be letting Dave know?!! ha

ProseccoBitch · 03/04/2017 14:52

Have you texted Dave to tell him? If not please do!

CadburyMellos · 03/04/2017 14:52

I've text Dave and said "So sorry I was angry with you yesterday, I have passed my test and am so grateful to you for teaching me" I know his address so I'm thinking of sending him something off amazon but don;t know what.

My problem with Dave* was that yesterday was the 5th time he had cancelled on me. Every time was a different excuse and I really don't know whether he was ill or not and felt it was just another excuse. He managed to double book me once and I'd paid somebody to look after my kids and he never showed up. He's only been an instructor for 2 years and was cheaper due to his lack of experience.

Yup Cadbury he does sound totally incompetent. Congrats and good luck with the impending new arrivals!

heymammy · 03/04/2017 15:02

Bloody well done on passing your test first time Smile. Sounds like 'Dave' needs to get his shit together tbh.

VioletHornswaggle · 03/04/2017 15:03

Congratulations OP! don't send Dave anything. It was his job to teach you and you did feel that he'd ;et you down in the past. Leave it! Oh and again, Flowers!

Saucery · 03/04/2017 15:04

Well done!

I think your text to him about passing was fine. I wouldn't send anything else.
