Andover rocks cuzzy  Im actually in Perham Down (say no more  )
Martin, all, seems I may have underestimated taking a full test after 10 years of driving 'normally'  
Tom, you say the price is good and you would know, considerring I will need at least some training if not all then I may get back to them. Trouble is they are 70 miles away, 3 days there and back adds a £100 disco refuel to the bill  So closer would be preferred. Only early days yet though I will google it to death when I get near a compooter rather than my phone.
DG thanks for the nudge and links will try them next
Thanks all Captain Nick Medhurst would ask:

Thanks all
Same problem I had. Been driving for 10 years, and having to drive like it was my driving test again as well as with the trailer on the back. Roundabouts are where they will try and get you as well.

Just as a little hint and a tip for you guys, always make sure that you chose a training provider that provides the service with fully qualified ADI's.
It become commonplace these days for a company to advertise the training service but then put you out with an unqualified 'expert'.
Not only is this practice illegal, it is also a waste of your money, as ADI's are check tested on their Instructional Techniques by the DSA every 18 months or so.
Make sure that your Instructor is 'badged' otherwise you may get any old crap!
Shanners.
