    Also, I had 2 BSM instructors after moving to another area mid-learning. Both were terrible. The first couldnt speak english and I was too busy trying to understand what he was saying to concentrate on the road. He also had a bad habit of shouting 'white van' at random intervals.

    Instructor 2 was a person of compromised height (in essence, a dwarf). He never had to get out of the car to go round to the other side, he would just slide across to the other seat. He also sang 'amazing grace' and other hymns whilst I was driving. The final straw came, when he asked me to get out of the car, he came round the front and began banging his head on the front of the car. He told me to bang my head on the windscreen (I declined) and told me he was just trying to show me how much it would hurt if I crashed and my head went through the windscreen. He was really creepy.

    :rotfl:Mookie this is so funny ( although probably not for you at the time)

    I like johnsons breast pads (they are the only ones that don't give me a rash!) :o

    And Fairies have some EBM storage bags (I only express 2oz max when am I ever going to use them?) 15 lanshionh (however you spell it) and 2 medela.

    Does food poisoning make you dizzy? I had a burger from a dodgy looking van at the car boot (dodgy looking because he was wearing a jumper that I didn't like the look off :rolleyes:) and I have managed to convince myself its the burger that is making me dizzy.

    I could also rant about DH moaning because Amber was crying for food when he was playing xbox and I was making dinner and then trying to wash and sterilise bottles, rather than him coming through to finish them off and I could give her a BF, he moaned while holding her and left me to sterilse and wash them? Manology?? But mleh...

    Have I ever told you I love you Mooki!!!

    You make me laugh all the time.


    In all seriousness SM, if you (or anyone) get an instructor that you don't get on with, or you think is a freak, or for whatever reason you just don't like - save your money and find someone else!! I have friends who, like Mooki, are professionals who stand up in court and represent clients on a daily basis but daren't tell their (frankly mad) driving instructor that they wanted to find someone else!!
    My friend spent 2 years 'learning' from a nutter that she was getting nowhere with...then another 6 months still paying for lessons with him whilst she 'secretly' learned from another instructor!!! Madness :rolleyes:
