lol didn't get it unfortunately, training went really well and barely made any mistakes, test came and I ended up taking the wrong exit at a double mini roundabout. It just really caught me off guard and I didn't know which way to go, ended up cutting someone up and he said if someone has to brake for you it's a fail. Silly mistake but i've never seen a double mini roundabout in years of car driving and it confused the hell out of me!

He did and I had no problem with the double minis then but he gave instructions differently, he said they should always be treated separately so he'd give instructions for each in advance whereas the examiner just said second exit at the roundabout at which point I panicked and went the wrong way (I still, technically, took the second exit but didn't count the give way line to the second roundabout as an exit). My entire ride was no where near as smooth as it had been in training either, nerves really got the better of me, was also still pretty dark and ****ing down. Not much fun really!
