Testimonial

I would like to thank you for your invaluable online information on the Brislington test centre.  My daughter took her test there and passed yesterday.   She had lots of lessons and made two unsuccessful attempts at the test four or five years ago at the trowbridge test centre which has now been closed.  There was only one booking available at Brislington and that was at 8.40 am yesterday. My daughter's second theory certificate was due to expire tomorrow.  We downloaded some of the test routes and followed them carefully, bearing in mind that she had never had any lessons in Bristol.  Your advice on various potential pitfalls was gratefully taken.  After my daughter had watched your St Philips Causeway video she said "I wish I'd have had a driving instructor like that".  Me too!
