2nd test of the year, and another first-time pass! Congratulations to Archie from Hildenborough for enduring the Tunbridge Wells test and coming out with only 2 minors!

First test of the year, and it’s well done to Louisa from Hildenborough for passing her test first time this afternoon at Sevenoaks. πŸš™πŸš™πŸš™

Belated Happy New Year! It’s been a while since my last post, but I’m still here πŸ˜‰. I now have some limited availability during weekday daytimes, for anyone looking for lessons in the Tonbridge/Hildenborough area. Lessons are 90 minutes in length, Β£45. Manual only only at present. 🚦 πŸš™

Hi all. After this morning's good news, I'm afraid it's now time for bad: all lessons and tests are to be suspended during the lockdown :(

Big congratulations to Alicia from Borough Green who passed her test first time with 3 minors at Tunbridge Wells this morning!

I can now confirm that I will be restarting lessons from Mon 13th July. It will mean that lessons will be a little different, what with PPE, and other factors, and I will need to sanitise the car between lessons. This means of course there will have less time available for lessons. I will post and update on all of this shortly

Happy Friday all! So it seems instructors can now start giving lessons again from early July :D This is of course very good news, however before I launch into booking lessons, I will be making sure that I can provide lessons safely. Therefore, I am seeking best practice advice regarding use of PPE, sanitizing the car, etc to make sure everyone is protected as much as possible from the dreaded COVID. As you will probably expect, lessons will be quite different from what we consider "normal", but hey-ho, let's make the best of it and work towards those all important tests!

Hi all, I hope you're keeping safe and well. I was rather hoping for something definitive in Boris' new guidelines, regarding whether or not instructors can get back to work. However as things stand there's been nothing, which means we are all still in limbo. This also means that, unless further "guidance" (!) is published, or the DVSA make their own minds up, we're a bit stuck :( Let's hope something positive comes out soon! 🀞🀞🀞

Here's to starting lessons again *soon* - whenever that will be 😳

Evening everyone, quick update: we have been advised that instructors may be able to start giving driving lessons again from early July - subject to how the infection rate is at the time of course. If all is well, I will take great delight in updating you closer to the time! In the meantime, stay safe and healthy :)
