my new driving school website has just gone live

25 quid an hour!? Where were you when I was learning to drive?   

Blimey - how much did you pay?

I think I paid like 32 quid an hour, I got ten hours as a birthday present but then just stuck with the same instructor even though it was more expensive. He was a sexist who would come out with phrases like 'watch out as there's a woman in front, god knows what she'll do next' but nice enough if you ignored that occasional slip

   


Blimey - 32 an hour?! That's crazy, must have been London prices?

Are you also going to sell your books on here    

I paid £16 an hour - and that was top rate at the time but also nearly twenty years ago

I think that I paid £4 per hour, but that included the wages for the man walking in front with a red flag..............

Funny you ask because I was thinking about becoming an award winning author in the next few years. I understand its quite easy.

I have just completed a bit of research tda and the red flag law was introduced in 1865..

Apparently £4 in 1865 would be £34 in today's money! So not cheap then Tda

In Norway it's ~70£ for 45 minutes  :cup:

I didn't mean to imply that it was cheap, just a long time ago.......
