June 3rd (Tuesday)

The rain pounds down, the June sky is a stagnant deep grey from which the deluge descends unremittingly. Puddles on the road swiftly turn to small muddy ponds blistered by the never ending raindrops.
Embarrassment as I take M out on the dual carriageway. I wonder at how proficiently he manages the lesson and how expertly he fields my every question. It's only on the way home that it dawns on me that I ave given exactly the same lesson a fortnight before. He doesn't say a word!
Then to Aylesbury and S, whose test is now less than a week away. He does ok, and if he can hold it together may be in with a chance. Back to Wycombe, and A again puts in a sterling performance. All she has to do is hold it together and it should be a breeze for her. But it is a big if. Self belief is not her thing.
Drive back to Aylesbury in the evening A2 has his test there although he has done all his training in Wycombe. Again he should be ok.
Off to the local instructors jamboree in the evening. The usual diet of bickering and dithering, but t least we hear nothing of the YDE until 9:25!! An evening's bowling is booked which could be fun. Go for a drink with B and N afterwards. s decided he has had enough of LDC and is going it alone. Will be interesting to see how he gets along.
