Humongous Friday yays go to Amelia who passed, first time, in Exeter, with only 3 driver faults, thankfully before the holiday traffic kicked in. I think I'll always remember the sound of your examiner's voice when he realised how much he was going to have to squeeze in, in order to fit into your car! Amelia has gone out in her own car a lot more than in mine, and was much more confident, so it really was a no brainer as to which car should be used for test.
It has been such a pleasure teaching you. You've approached it as something fun but with exactly the right amount of seriousness in there too. I will miss our lessons but know that I'll hear about you from your friend who has patiently been waiting to take over your slot!
Good luck with your DoE next week, your last year of school, your exams, and getting into the university of your choosing. And I hope to see you around, as you only live in the next village!!
Oh, and well done to your dad who has done a fantastic job of supporting you in the many, many journeys you've done in your own car. It's not easy taking on that role
