Had a couple of questions on this, so I thought I'd post on the thread to save duplication. This day is open to anyone, irrespective of driving experience/ability, as people who'd come to previous days are more than welcome to sign up again if they want

Chris

I'm interested in this still, not too far away for me. Will have to confirm nearer the time but at the mo i'm a yes!

Thanks Moox

Just looking at starting to plan the routes for this so a quick bump for anyone else who may be interested

Just a reminder it's on the 10th October in Andover, Hampshire.

Chris

Looking forward to it! After reading Westallc's experience i'm all up for being shown how to drive, always considered myself to be a good driver, but totally 100% expect to be shown to be the muppet i really am!

In a lot of cases, most of the people I take out are car enthusiasts who tend to be pretty good drivers with a fair awareness of their surroundings and a feel for what the car is doing. So really, rather than saying you're a muppet (although we reserve the right to say that if you are a muppet ), we're looking at ways to build on your existing driving that you can see and feel benefit from

as clive was an amazing driver already

It's true - I was certainly amazed by some of the things you did :P:rofl:

Chris

Having read Clive's mini-review i think i'll make the switch to "attendee" (pending the booking of a winter holiday or some other event SWMBO hasn't told me about yet!)

Having had no driver training, bar enough to pass my test 8ish years ago, it'll be good to have my knuckles wrapped on the issues i know are there but don't know how best to sort out!

Bumpety-bump!

Now have 25 people down as coming to this, but we can probably accommodate a couple more if anyone's still interested

Chris

Just finalising arrangements and all those signed up or expressing an interest should have a PM now asking for a few further details. If you haven't got a PM or you weren't on the original list, let me know and I'll get you added...

Thanks, Chris

I'd like to take part - it's not too far away, and I'd feel right at home with so many others also driving Škoda cars. Also I'd be able to see so many of 'special' my friends, (Chris, Mark, John, Ross, Nick, David & John).

I'll be coming only if my new car arrives by then! Might even be the day after I collect it!

Thanks, Tom.

Not sure yet - she's gone off to Ireland to rediscover the joys of driving, so maybe ...

'lo Gareth - is "special my friends" an attempt at paraphrasing Czech? (I know how seriously you take any new venture you undertake!)

Yoda my twin brother is :P

If there's anyone "up north" who'd like to do something similar, visit East Lancashire Advanced Motorists - Home Page and I'll see if I can sort it out.

Thanks, Paul - will be good to have a Northern contingent If you want to drop me a contact e-mail addy, I'll happily send you a copy of the PDF (when I finish it ) I'm preparing for the day to see if there's anything in there you might want to re-use

AnotherHanna

It looks like there may be a message answering your question this afternoon.

It's on the interweb link there....

All those who've confirmed should now have a PM telling them where they can get hold of the final copy of the pdf instructions, schedule and pairings for the day. If you think you're coming and haven't got a PM, let me know as I may have missed you :rofl:

Chris

Thanks to everyone who came and made this day a success (all 22 of you ) and always good to see some new faces amongst the regulars Special thanks to Faboka and Will for some excellent drives and also not being too nasty about my driving. Hope you had a great day and made it home without being completely shattered.

So, who wants to do it all again in a few weeks? I'll organise the sunshine
