Yay
Kelly honestly its so easy, just drive like a nana and they will love you. Your restricted is just to prove you are safe enought drive without a techer but that you are still learning. I stalled while parking in mine but still got it. Go do it.

na none of that only thing she asked me was to do a 3 point turn in a very quiet dead end street. we were not even in the middle of town so it was not even much of traffic. It was so much easier then i could have imagined.

Congrats on passing! Argh I must go and sit my Full License sometime soon, have been putting it off ...as mentioned above I have heard the horror stories of people being asked to Parallel park! ...I'm so crap at parallel parking, no one has really ever bothered to teach me (coz like myself most avoid it like the plague).
I usually drive around in circles until I find a parking spot that suits or i just give up entirely!

Restricted takes about 20 mins maybe, you might have to do a parallel park or 3 point turn or u turn. I had to do a u turn and didn't even indicate at all and still passed. If you can afford it I recommend going to a driving instructor for one lesson to learn all the little things.
Full is even easier especially if you have been driving for ages, just drive like a nana. You don't have to parallel park, just do a u turn in an 80k area so do it at a real quiet time.

Congratulations! I guess I should really bite the bullet and go sit mine. I'm so nervous as everyone I know who sat theirs after they outsourced it to the AA failed first time around.
