G1 licence

Well, L took her G1 written driving test yesterday and had a perfect score. It takes 20-24 months to get your driver's licence in Ontario now under the new Graduated Licensing system. If she passes a ministry approved driving course, she can take the G1 road test within 8 months, otherwise it's a 12 month wait. If she passes the G1 road test, she gets a G2 licence and becomes eligible to take the G2 road test in another 12 months and become a fully licensed driver.

The contractor arrived almost on time this morning with a helper. He said he's never worked in such a clean, empty basement before. We decided to give the contractor the house key, they will need it, as they are in and out getting supplies, etc.

K's piano exam is tomorrow morning, it's crunch time. We'll leave right after to Sauble Beach for the weekend. It's an extended family weekend at M's sister's cottage, so I won't post again until Monday. They have amazing sunsets up there (as they do in Wasaga Beach) as the beaches face west.

Wow--your driving tests sound even more challenging than the UK's!

These tougher rules recently came into effect because a lot of the younger drivers were in a lot of accidents and it was felt they needed a better system
