Living and working in London learning to drive was low priority for Sarah Moss. But life throws curved balls and getting a full licence unexpectedly moved to the top of her “to do list”. Between us we played “diary jenga” to slot in sufficient sessions that she would be ready to take her test at Skipton yesterday. “A lovely drive” says the examiner and this resulted in a 1st time pass. Enjoy your weekend away to rest and recover!

No more McDonald lunches on Thursdays for Holly Hope after her driving lessons - as today she passed her driving test 1st time at Skipton in the automatic mini. “A really lovely drive” said her examiner 😊 It’s been a real pleasure getting to know Holly and helping her gain self confidence in her ability to drive a car independently. I look forward to passing you in the Puma Holly.
