I'm wanting to do a few camping trips with friends and I'm also going back to school for a second degree! It's gonna be packed, but I really wanna get outside more this summer, before the smoke rolls in. Do y'all have any fun plans?

I've just recently passed my driving test and bought a car, so plenty of little trips around the Peak District & Yorkshire Dales I think this summer! Might try and venture up to the Lakes too.

Having a car feels so strange, considering I'm a little late to driving - so much freedom!

It's my first summer with a driving license as well. Definitely some analysis paralysis going on now when deciding where to go for a road trip.

Assign places a number, 1-20, then roll a d20 for initiative :)

That's sweet! I love going for cruises in my car. What kinda car do you got?

[–] jack@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I've bought a little VW Polo!

You'll hate to hear this, but be careful! I bumped my car a WEEK after I had passed the test. Not as bad as my aunt who got into an accident the day she passed, but still!

I'm hoping that doesn't happen! I learned in an A3, so my car is a bit smaller which I think helps.

Congrats that's awesome! I'm hoping to learn soon too (in my case VERY late to driving), can only imagine how good it must feel.

100% worth it! I wish I'd done it sooner now

Congrats on passing the driving test! There's a lot of freedom that comes with having a car. That was my first taste back when I got it in secondary school. Feels great :)
