leaving home today to go off to the HEADS OF THE VALLEYS DRIVER TRAINING for my c and e.
Test on friday not as nervous YET as i was when i went down there for my c training but lets see what happens in the week.
Think i’m most concerned about the reversing and couple/un couple.
Fingers and everything crossed it all goes to plan and i get that blue sheet of paper
You will be fine mate, the reverse and couple/uncouple I found to be the easiest thing, getting used to the lenght of the wagon is the bit you got learn. I passed first time last Friday despite my instructor telling me I need a lot more lessons before my test Friday, but I turned it around and passed despite what was said
I’m phoning HOTV training tomorrow (as well as Crosshands training) to get a quote and earliest booking dates C+E.
Will you be doing one on one training?
I did 2-1 training for my C and 1+1 training for C+E, 1+1 I personally think is better but 2+1 you can see where the other person is going wrong and that helps a lot.
I’m hoping to get one to one training for my c+e. Like many, I did 2:1 on my class 2 many years ago and didn’t feel I got equal training as the other guy would have extra driving time to correct his faults.
21 years after passing my class 2, I’m going to do my c+e - and as I’m paying I’m hoping to get 1:1 training this time.
Best of wishes runner bean. I am useless at reversing (you will have read my posts). I listened intently to my instructor and, with lots of practice, I got through the reverse and uncouple/couple with no minors (the uncouple/couple is an easy process, with lots of training advice on here).
Personally I found the C+E much more fun than the C. Having read your earlier posts I am firmly of the opinion that you will be fine
Enjoy your course and keep us all informed of your progress!!
