No chance, i certainly would not want to shake hands!!!! Hello, will do nicely. Don't want to damage my bowing hand!!!!!

I had never thought about whether to shake hands with the examiner or not, but I had my Grade 3 today and the examiner held his hand out to me as I came into the room, so it would have seemed pretty rude not to shake hands with him. Nice of him really since my hand was probably clammy from sitting nervously in a hot waiting room.
