My wife and her trainer at the gym yesterday, apparently he says 1 - 2, 1 being the left hand. It didn't work so he changed it to Left - Right and had another trainer take photos for insurance purposes.
He's a braver man than me, because there isn't any difference in left and right.  She's a fantastic map reader, but waves her right hand about and says,  "take the next left." 

Well done to Megan Kennedy who passed her test on her first attempt.
Hope you get the Christmas present you are hoping for Megan and don't forget to be nice to your dad for all the extra lesson he gave you.
Have  good Christmas and all the Very Best for 2013 and remember my boring saying.
Can you see and be seen?
Drive Safely.

Anyone who has read todays Daily Express will see an article about grand parents not being aware of seat belt laws. It states that the driver is responsible for children up to 12 years old. To clear things up I have just copied Rule 100 from the Highway Code this morning.

The Highway Code.
Rule 100

The driver MUST ensure that all children under 14 years of age in cars, vans and other goods vehicles wear seat belts or sit in an approved child restraint where required (see table above). If a child is under 1.35 metres (approx 4 feet 5 inches) tall, a baby seat, child seat, booster seat or booster cushion MUST be used suitable for the child’s weight and fitted to the manufacturer’s instructions.

2014 was a really good year for me, just one person didn't pass first time therefore I thought, perhaps 2015 everyone I put up will pass first time. How wrong can you be?  So far this year for the first time ever got two serious and one dangerous and you wouldn't believe what for. Not to mention one doing 35mph in a 20 zone on a road we have to drive along to get to the test centre fortunately, because when the examiner questioned it he said he didn't know because he hadn't been on that road before.
Make me wonder what I'm doing wrong.

First time pass with only 2 minors for Monica Patel. Well done Monica, now you can go to uni and concentrate on your studies.

Well Done Kathryn Wood, first time pass today with only two minors. Now you can relax, no more squeezing your baby bump behind that steering wheel.

Hope the imminent birth goes smoothly, if you do any more driving? Drive safely. 

Because Sean is useless with the computer and his mobile is still one of the original wind up ones I wrote down the instruction how pupils could access their licence details via our website. He complained this week the website wasn't working.
I got the pupils details and checked but could only get a message saying contact the DVLA. Incidentally they're on strike until Wednesday 3rd Sept. 
 Had another new pupil due to start next week give me their details today so I could check, yet again no record of that licence at the DVLA and to contact them.
I'm an expert at making say the number 21 into 12, but checked and rechecked. That's two new licences this week that aren't correct for whatever reason.
Anyone else having this problem?
