Hi Guys,
Well I originally signed up to this forum roughly 6 years ago with all intentions of becoming an HGV driver, unfortunately things in life don’t always go to plan and it got put on the back burner for a little longer then I hoped.
So I am back again and have been looking around this site as well as others and the advice and friendlyness to new/wannabe drivers is top notch.
So I have passed the medical and have have my theory/Hazard perception booked for a few weeks. Im thinking about going through Tyne & wear LGV again as they still seem to get good feedback but also going to look at a few people on this board who do the training so may have some questions for people in due course. I have an assessment drive tomorrow so I can get my first feel of a ‘big truck’ so hope all goes well.
go for it buddy get stuck in, good luck
Welcome. Any questions, fire away. Pete 
Good luck with your assessment, this will give you a good chance to look at the school and speak to the trainers.
You will be able to see how they work and make a choice on how you feel.
I am sure things will go well for you

Good luck mate, all the best.
New year, new opportunities. Good luck and enjoy it! 
I have my theory next week.
Well had my theory and hpt today and…Passed!!
Got 95/100 on multiple choice and 80/100 on HPT which i was suprised at as I couldn’t pass on my laptop as could hardly make anything out.
So now the fun of finding someone to go through my lessons with. Got some numbers for a few people in the north east so going to see if I can arrange an assesment drive and speak to some instructors. I also saw a list on here of recommended places so will have a look at that aswell.
Any recommendations from anyone else in the north east who has been through there lessons would be appreciated
Could always take a nice drive down to Peter Smythes place
Congrats on getting through the tests! I agree on the hpt, so much easier full screen.
