Good luck. :D I hope the weather is nice to you.

You will be fine. Relax and enjoy.

If you make a mistake just keep going, you will probably only get a minor for it and we can all live with minors :)

And if you fail then dont beat yourself up (like I did) just pick yourself up and do it again!

Remember your checks, cancel your indicators, take your time etc etc.

FWIW - I failed my practical first time, post-emergency-stop. They tell you the wont stop you if there's anyone behind you, they'll only stop you if it's safe to do so, otherwise they'll wave you on and you come round for another go. So, in my head, I knew there was nothing behind me. He says can you just bring bike over to the kerb side, I check both mirrors, but neither shoulder - you are supposed to check both. That's the only bit of advice I really have to share, the rest is just relax - if you do make a mistake, they might not necessarily see it, so don't worry about it.
