Wink Everyone Keep Your Fingers Crossed

Mrs Carlpenn has just left to resit her Ambulance Drivers test this morning.

She went approx 4 weeks ago and sadly failed, as well as failing her fitness test. However, She had been asked to resit her tests today. So she has been training and practicing lots inbetween.

We hired a LWB Van for her to practice in, as the only thing she failed on was reverse parking (please no lady and parking jokes - Especially Ken, as I have just seen what happens to Visitor Signs when you park lol !! )

She has wanted to do this for many years now, but teh opportunity never came up so lets all keep our fingers crossed for her today

Good luck to her!

I learned a few years back not to take the mickey out of women drivers. A mate of mine is female, and one of the best drivers I've ever sat in a car with!
