When and where do we meet?

We meet for 'Guidance Sessions' every other Sunday Morning at the Nag's Head Public House*, Uttoxeter Road, Mickleover, Derby DE3 9GF (see the Useful Links page and the map below).

*Please don't ring the pub for details about this group - they let us use their facilities for free and we don't want to upset them. See the Who are we? page for our contact details.

The 'Guidance Sessions' start at 10 am. Arrive a few minutes early and we'll pair you up with an observer, who will chat with you for a few minutes and put you at ease. Then you'll take him or her out in your car for a one to two hour drive around their suggested route.

This year's sessions (2012) are:

  • Bring yourself, your car and your partner if it helps - as long as your car has enough seats for them and one of us. Your partner must be a supportive and interested person, but remember it is only you that we are to help (unless your partner joins as well).
  • Make sure that you have a valid, full licence and your car has tax, a test certificate (if over three years old), insurance, and plenty of fuel for a one to two hour drive.
  • We are not the police, so we can't fine or arrest you if you turn up in a car that isn't roadworthy. However, we will refuse to sit in it and we will not give you any guidance.

  • Classic or vintage cars are fine - but they must be able to do modern road speeds and tight manoeuvres, and have suitable seat belts.  It is up to our observers to decide if they feel comfortable sitting in your car with you.
