I was early actually Mr ED!
Passed my test with the second examiner!!! Sitting in the waiting room all nervous and worried (as ya do!), examiner walked in and called out for the next victim "Mr Ross" so I shot to my feet and walked outside and got in the car, he then started calling me David and I realised the guy sitting next to me in the waiting room was standing by my front door!!!

DOH!!!!!

Next examiner saw what happened and double checked I was the right person TWICE!!!!

I didn't feel silly.............MUCH!!!!

1st time in car, 2nd time on bike. Bike tests are alot harder and most of the bike examiners are ex-coppers, so they are generally power hungry *****!
