Bit of news...
« on: February 14, 2020, 22:19:11 »
My lad Edward whom some of you met at the Wales meet last year, passed car driving test yesterday...
He doesn't have or need a car as yet, he did it primarily for his RAF application, as he finishes his A-levels this summer.

Next up is A2 direct access in just over a year...then I will share my strom or maybe find it a friend  :grin: :grin: 
May your God go with you...

Brilliant news Edward, well done. :clap:

Hello, thanks for the interest.

My lad is looking at Police Officer role and then specialising from there.
We are sitting down tomorrow for a few hours to have a good look on the website and apply.

Cheers.
May your God go with you...
