Yep joined the local group. I am getting on OK, my observer wants to arrange a 2nd opinion to check for test readiness Shocked

Welcome aboard and good luck! Very Happy

The 2nd opinion is standard practice among most groups and a good opportunity to get a different perspective on your driving. My 2nd observer picked up a couple of minor things that my regular observer had missed. He also didn't ask me to do any of the manouevres Laughing

So how have you found being 'Observed'? Wink

It is kind of strange at first but luckily my observer has given good encouragement and I have not felt "talked at" or indeed "talked down to"

Enjoyable overall really
