The good people from the Advanced-Driving.co.uk forum are holding a 'taster day' in Andover, Hants on the 17th of April.

Members of the forum with RoSPA, IAM or HPC experience will be available to informally assess your driving, and give a drive themselves. It's free, the atmosphere is friendly and relaxed, and it's based at a restaurant that's open all day.

If you're new to Advanced Driving and curious about what it can do for you, or you just want to come along for a fun day of driving, have a look at this link - previous days have been enjoyed by all who took part.

If you're interested, stick your name on the thread, sign up to AD-UK and add your name to the thread on there or drop me a PM biggrin

I attended this last year, and can heartily recommend it as a great way to find out more about advanced driving - seeing it being applied makes all the difference.

Thanks Martyn!

Just to add all are welcome, irrespective of age, experience, whether they've attended before, or skill level.

Well it would be a long way for him to travel, but it would be interesting if 'Astraist' could be there. I seem to be shut out of AD-UK now, so I can only read things, but he's certainly put a lot of effort into telling people how it should all be done. wink It is unfortunate that he's become irritating to a few people.

Have a good day, Chris.

Best wishes all,
Dave.

"I seem to be shut out of AD-UK "

I wondered where you were Dave. Have you done something to upset Darren?

Not knowingly, I can assure you; but one of my more obvious talents is the ability to cause upsets without any intention of doing so.

Never mind, I see Von Smallhausen laugh has recently reappeared on AD-UK so he'll no doubt shed useful light on things. I expect he got tired of struggling with this rebellious bunch here. wink

Best wishes all,
Dave.

Well, Astraist seems to be doing a pretty good job at taking your place there!

Well he clearly knows a lot of stuff, but it seems to be largely track orientated, and some of it is not really relevant to driving on public roads.

Best wishes all,
Dave.
