It's ok Andy - it's all over now

Bloody cars!

Great report Andy. I'm sitting here smiling thinking back through it all.

I was so gutted to leave Plymouth on Friday as the weather was completely awesome, and I didn't want to do the course in a quarry. However, the winds picked up, Plymouth would have been undiveable, and Chepstow really exceeded my expectations, so all is well. You need a backup plan when the instructor comes all the way from Sweden.

Cheers
andy

Congrats guys - nice write-up. Sorry to hear you missed Plymouth - I did wonder what was going to happen when I looked at the weather and thought of your course!

Cheers

Well done mate. You could've seen my report from earlier this year to put your mind at rest

Well done guys.

It's bad enough that the GUE instructors 'assess' your weaknesses then 'play' on them. But there are getting lazy by asking you what they are now

And, you should have told him that you are really not that good in confined overhead environments and hoped that he would keep testing you on that
