I passed C+E first time with a no faults/clean driving test report sheet, wagon & drag, 1 to 1 excellent training with Peter Smythes training centre, then went straight out on night shift shortly after passing, driving articulated curtain sider, reversing onto bays ( including blindside reverses)through out the night, (there’s a thread on somewhere in newbies). Never looked back & have gone on to driving temperature controlled units, & then containers.
Also tackling a variety of different gearboxes, no problems 
I am actually driving Class 1, regularly doing container work, had more class1 work offered than what I can fit in 
I’m absolutely in my element , still feeling on top of the world & just so happy to be out there driving.
Thank you Peter
I did want to do a diary with photo’s but for some reason I can’t get them to appear

Peter Smythe:
W&D reverse was sorted out
… which reminds me - desperately short of homemade cookies in Mansfield!
All the best Jennie. Pete 
now how will that be sorted 
Jennie, if you could get a batch of cookies send over to arrive monday that would be great
Im sure they would be a great training aid for c+e 
cheers Mike
Well it looks like I’ll be going up to Peter’s fairly soon, so if Jennie’s cookies are that good she can post them to me and I can deliver them to Peter.I am in the practice of clearing about 80% of cookies that I receive, but I promise to get the rest to Peter.

A container of homemade baked goods, arrived at petes premises today
I was working near Chester today but when I called the office to make sure all was well, there was no mention of “baked goods”.
So I think a surprise visit to the office tomorrow is called for before it’s too late!!
Thanks very much Jennie - as said, you’re a star.
