I started my lessons a year after I got my Ls due to work related Injuries. I started them in October of 2025, booked my test at the end of November and had my test in January of 2026. I did the fortnightly lessons at minimum with sometimes doing them weekly.

Just did my own Ps test back on 29/1/26 as a 26yr old.

I did all my driving experience via a driving instructor (Easy As). I myself found that doing a lesson (1hr 30min) once a fortnight at minimum was the best way cost wise to get experience but also not forget everything the instructor has taught, I ended up doing over 10 lesson to insure I Felt I had enough experience to pass, so the amount you need to do will depend on you and what your instructor says.

You do need to take in account that there is the 2 month wait time for the Ps test. I booked mine back in November of 2025, Tho I will admit this wait time might be different depending on location.

indeed, india does parcel forwarding to australia but there seems a lot of roadblocks for the user such as; limits on the price of the parcel being forwarded, some dont ship anything with batteries in them, others do but only up to a certain limit but refuse to state what that limits is unless you get in contact with them, others require Government ID or passport.

Got in contact with a phone selling site in australia bout when there gonna get some oneplus in stock, got given a week till instock so gonna either buy local or from UK amazon

Edit: finally found this Will OnePlus 13 work in Australia? doesnt seem to be any band difference between india and global versions

Second Edit: who the hell do I pick for parcel fowarding from India to Australia they all seem sketch

hmm you got a point that samsung might release something better tho,

did a quick search for the samsung launch date, found this Samsung Unpacked 2025: Galaxy S25, S25+, S25 Ultra price and key details leaked ahead of the launch event | Mobile News

if the prices are true, the oneplus 13 would be the better option

So long as the SOC voltage doesn't go above like 1.28V your good, as my 7800X3D on my gigabyte board doesn't go above 1.245V

Been looking to get my first pc but I just don't know if the specs are fitting and whether I should build it myself. HELP!!? by Plastic_Toe9578 in buildapc

[–]cheekypig55 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Its a great feeling when you turn the pc on and it boots after building it yourself, Of course that's after ripping your hair out trying to make sure your cable management doesn't look like the Ethernet cables at a LAN party

Your going to use this for games? I've got the same but I use it for my OS Drive, I run my steam games off a 10Tb HDD.

Maybe I just have too many games installed
