I broke up with the mother of my children. I was originally only staying with my sister temporarily until I found a suitable property to rent but I wasn't making enough money to be able to cover the cost of rent, council tax and everything other household bills and still have money to survive. Then covid hit and I wasn't able to work at all. I'm now in a situation where I feel I'm treading on my sisters' and her husbands' toes by living with them still.
I want to still use my driving skills and experience. This is why I'm pivoting from coach to Lorry driving. I want to apply for this position because even as a child I loved and always wanted to be able to drive a big lorry just like my uncle who was my hero. Driving is all I know and I feel it is now time to make my childhood ambition/dream a reality. I currently have a PCV (bus/coach) license. I love to drive and find it relaxing. As I love sightseeing, the possibility of travelling around the country intrigues me.
I love spending time with my family. Especially my grandchildren and watching them grow. I enjoy going to the cinema or staying home to watch films. I love learning about history and watching documentaries on the national geographic channel. I like to travel to different historical places like Stonehenge, Tower of London and Warwick Castle to name a few.
The biggest obstacle I've had to overcome is asking for help. I'm a very proud person and have always been very independent. Now I've taken this step, I'm looking forward to the future.
