Wink appliying for licence theory

Hi everyone,

I've read in this book on Perth that when you arrive in oz to live and you apply to convert your Driving licence to WA licence you have to take a theory test. It says you have to get 24 out of 30 right, has anyone taken this yet and is it a peice of cake. I have been driving since I was 21 and I'm 39 now so I should P***S it but, I hate tests. I flap like a chuck(chicken)

I just wanted to know how evryone else has got on.


Have a great day

Glynn and Family

P.S. how do you get your picture on so, I would like to share with you guys our family

Hi all,

Please can you tell us where you take your UK license to in Perth to actually get an Aussie one. Do we need to provide a recent photo also?

Be good to add to my list of things to do when we get there.

thanks

Glen & Shirley
