An update on our Big Mini Mike we have decided the colour is Royal Grey Metallic with Grey Alloy Wheels.
Also decided on the roof box writing the colour of the text will also be Grey Metallic.
It's a change from the usual Black.

Big Mini test drive

Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year.

I had a test drive in a brand new Mini Countryman CooperSD ALL4drive Diesel the other day which will be our new instruction car, arriving in March 2013.  It was lots of fun to drive and I can't wait to get my own!  It is a little bit higher than my current Mini, which offers better visability.

I have also been out running for my half marathon which I am running for Acorns Hospice, I will add a link here to the justgiving page once I have set it up.  I have managed 6 miles so far, so there is a little way to go, but the race isn't until the end of March so I will keep you all posted as to how I am doing before then.

A Good Day

We had a very good day of driver coaching. Everyone showed real progress. Which is always rewarding.

Filling In The Detail

I was thinking of this the other day,it's one thing to use MSPSL ( Mirror Signal Position Speed Look ) but unless I explain it fully and why we need to use this process when approaching any hazard why would anyone do it.
Someone once said very correctly the devil is in the detail.
