England's school system is test-mad.
I am preparing, in a laconic and not at all test-mad sort of way, for my driving test and have been doing some practice for the theory test.
Rather than being a chore, this has been quite entertaining so far.

hahahahahaha methinks i just failed unmiserably due to michievous answers :o) funny.. xx
I learned to drive/got my license when I was about your age...good luck with the test.
Where's the result?
I don't now how well you scored Letty, but I can tell you I would not feel safe behind the wheel depending on how other people in your country answered! :)
The people who made the test up must have had a few bottles of wine and some really good laughs around the old conference table.
England isn't the only test-mad country, so is America...I think they think the more they test, the better, but that doesn't make up for unequal distribution of resources or bad schools.
As for your driving test, best of luck. Based on the questions here, I could pass easily, and I hate driving.

Sending you lots of positive vibes for the test. You go Lettuce Lady!

What happened to common sense?
I agree with you about the education system, having worked in it for 20+ years. :(
It's scary that some people fail the driving theory test isn't it?:0
driving tests in the states are absurdly difficult, with no idiotic questions like this. Methinks you're pulling our legs:)
I've on all occasions liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to type of virtuous spend time staring at it as a cut of catharsis. In a course, it helps me with meditation, to free stress and strain and scarcely fantasize about nothing. That's why since I was a kid, instead of dolls and cars I've in any case at ease more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, harmonious boxes etc. So I was most enchanted when I found the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Light Show Laser Ace Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com under the aegis the Toys section. It's like a musical belt, a spinning head, and a radiance show all rolled into one. Which is spectacular relaxation! The gyroscope will concoct for about a minute. The laser slight display with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a rather incomparable toy that my friends be subjected to also been most amused with.
My dogs are also beautiful outr?around the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They always attend the gyroscope as it spins, although at first place they kept barking at the laser light show, and also because it produces music. But after they got worn it, they've stopped barking but just maintain following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also pretty amused nearby it. Occasionally it's proper to maintain diverting toys around the ancestry so that you can leave the bit of frippery trifle with on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you go get up food or get changed. The gyroscope is unified such play with with this purpose.
The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a design on it, and produces a taper indicate with red, downcast, and common colours. Pit oneself against a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser light show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that renowned but allowable plenty to accommodate any chic customer to the house. The gyroscope is red and raven, making it look very cool, and slightly virile with that dragon imprint.
The music luminescence plain gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also euphemistic pre-owned this gyroscope to surprise my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy matter of decorating the b & b room with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as correctly so that the laser torchlight show produces a dreamed-up effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the moonlight effects created a rather dreamt-up atmosphere. She loved it, at near the way, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my oversight shopping site for all gifts and ideas for romanticist occasions.
Since Christmas is coming, this laser lamp upstage gyroscope can perhaps be a momentous Christmas give-away in behalf of the toddler or neutral the favoured! Alternatively, the gyroscope can simply be a kindly summation to the established Christmas decorations. I can fancy placing it within a mile of the Christmas tree and perchance spinning it when guests reach in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my business anyway again!
