Well had a nice chat with the Local guy and we are arranging my first drive. He then wanted to know what car i drive and on finding out i had a six he reckened that the observers would be queing up to give me a run as it's not often there is a proper car being used (His words).  I guess if that the case i can pick the prettyist  to observe me.

I will keep you posted

Dont worry mate, I had exactly the same feelings.

My observer was a lovely lady, who in a few weeks managed to take my driving apart and put it back together again without making me feel silly at all.

Overall she didnt change too much, but what she did change made a world of difference.

Good luck, keep us posted.

Just waiting for news from Peter and blur now !!
Best Wishes

Nigel

I think there was a question somewhere in there for me. If so, I am not aware but why not ask them yourself if they are willing to help the Irish region?

Thanks for the offer, I'm currently based in Dublin and don't get out much - other than the quarterly dash to Bordeaux to make sure the house is still there - I am very inerested though, Is there anyone in the Emerald isle that can show me the error of my ways? How long would it take? I'm somtimes around the Forest of Dean but not often & not normally for that long....

Congrats Nigelbigok
