How long do u think someone should take driving lessons to make them ready to drive?

Natalie is 17 in Nov and desperate to take lessons, because she has been in 2 young guys cars that are about 18 and one passed his test within 4 months of taking lessons, how many is that , I don't know.

I think i had over 30 lessons, but i had a break for a few months cause i couldn't affored it and on the day of my test, my driving instructer's car broke down, so he had to hire one n i didn't get my hour lesson before n the clutch was different, but i still passed first time! but that was yonks ago. I remember they used to say it depended what driving examiner u got, wether u passed or not.

She is already doing the mock tests computer disc all the time (I'm actually crap at it) cause she is determined to pass quickly AND she is convinced we are going to buy her a car as soon as she does, little does she know!

I think it is experience that makes u the driver that u are, what do u think? Trina xx

About 15 years ago there was a plant in our hallway that flourished in its position that caught the sunlight, this plant was nursed over many years of its life, that was, until it became my responsibility. I let it down, I ignored it, I failed to water it, and it withered away.

I couldn't throw it out, and the pot of soil sat there just where it had always been.

Several months later, and I don't know why, or how, but one day I noticed that a growing tip was emerging from the soil, I watered it and fed it.
