So, I had my driving test today.
Checking the weather reports from the Met Office in advance was a great experience and mentally helped me prepare myself for the upcoming test - as every single day of the week was clear from severe weather, except Wednesday; the very day I was supposed to be proving my ability to drive and simultaneously not plough through members of the general public and their property.
Already images of a rainy-day-crash-derby had entered my mind, I figured at least Studio8 would have exclusive interviews and first-hand experience of any chaos I may cause.
But, the weather turned out to be a fantastic aid to my driving, effortlessly assisting me by; fogging up the glass, making the mirrors near-unusable and possibly worst of all, pouring through the window, immersing me in what felt like an experience at sea for two.
Though, while I didn't crash, I didn't pass either. Super-Yay. Living on the edge.
It could have gone alot worse; with the death toll reaching a whole person or with the totalling of my instructors car.
But realistically, seeing as I went home with a sheet saying I'd failed, in retrospect it could have gone alot better too - By passing, driving into a pot of gold or sexy lingerie party.
However, continuing my long-standing tradition of failing with finesse and epic style, I managed to attain a Dangerous Fault, signifying I'd placed us in an actual near-danger situation. Plus points, for me.
I'd like to take the opportunity to point out I didn't see anyone who was inconvenienced by the admittedly bizarre right turn I conducted that resulted in the Dangerous Fault, but I wasn't going to complain as the examiner seemed
Still. The best drivers pass the second time.
And, incase I fail the second time, I'd like to state now that the best of the best drivers fail twice.

In other news, as of the First of this month, I have been deemed a "significant risk to AdWord Advertisers." Personally, I think that statement is a little melodramatic to say the least, I would admit "significant risk" if perhaps this was a blog plotting the general downfall of Google Incorporated, it's financiers, shareholders, affiliates and partners.
But it is not.
Still; kudos to Google. You make me sound like a terrorist.
So hey, not just a threat to your roads kids, but a danger to your multinational Internet corporations too.
Sam.
