Read that and agree. It is fascinating.

Mock test. Watch to end.

I'm confused.

Oooh - I think I’ve found a new channel to follow. This is like Maureen on Driving School….

[Rich B]

Just unbelievable.

[Simon]

Yeah, but no.

Maybe I'm just getting a bit old, but I'm not sure that putting up videos on Instagram of his students doing their lessons, regardless of how fucking awful they are, is the right thing to do. It doesn't matter that he's blurred their faces a little, they're easily identifiable anyway.

I may have mentioned previously but in my test, I made a right turn instead of the left the tester had instructed. Guess I was just stressed and nervous. The right turn was harder than the left and I executed it, albeit in the wrong direction, perfectly. Besides, I think the tester had already decided I'd passed at that point.

He did laugh and ask if I had L and R written on my shoes...

The first thing my examiner asked me was if it was ok for him to smoke, I was hardly going to say no. He spent a good proportion of the test attempting to light his pipe followed by several repeated attempts. Lots of smoke. I passed

I didn’t notice that, when you look on instagram itself the text is minimised so you don’t have to read all the bullshit

However at least the text is half relevant, most of instagram has text like “no problem! Here’s the recipe for a superb lemon meringue pie…..” when it’s a video of a bloke falling off a ladder or something

It's something to do with the algorithm that people are trying to manipulate. You'll see it when people put up clips that include movies, or celebs, or even brands, it gives some lengthy, partially relevant AI slop underneath. As mentioned, thankfully it's collapsed and not visible most of the time....

The very first line it was obviously not written by a human

I wonder how much they spent on fuel, servicing, and other consumables (tyres etc) to cover 175k Kms in a Chiron?

According to the WLTP figure I can find, it is 25.19L/100km, so... Quite a lot.

About 44,191 litres. Call it £70-71k at the pump, assuming they're filling up with premium.

Love that!
