Lead Up

Just to set the scene, been driving approx 26 years. Passed car test in 1985, motorcycle in 1987 and PCV in 1991. At the time of getting the medical for the PCV I asked for LGV entitlement as well. Then when returning my licence for addittion of PCV (17 years ago !) requested C & C+E prov to be added.

About 4 weeks ago decided that I was going to use my forces resettlement package to gain LGV licensing. Booked a theory test in Ullapool (I live in Moray!) for the following week. Did really well on the theory (60/60) but almost fluffed the Haz Perception (2 lost clips) but managed 56/75. So that was that, then booked a 6 week trg package with Nightfreight in Burnley.

Week 1 - Class C - Passed 4 Apr !!!
Week 2 - Work Experience
Week 3 - Forklift
Week 4 - Drivers Essential Knowledge
Week 5 - 2 Days HiAb trg, 3 days Work Experience
Week 6 - Class C+E
