I sat the course but unfortunately I didn't have the right kind of ID to sit the test. I need photo ID or my original birth certificate to prove who I am. I only have a copy of my birth certificate and no form of photo ID. That has meant sending off for a Provisional Driving Licence. When I get that then I have to get in touch with the company that was running the course. I will then be able to sit the test plus with a bit of luck be able to resit the course as it will most likely take between two and three weeks to receive the ID. Looking on the bright side it will allow me more time to take in all the information I need to digest to pass the tests. As I was going for the CCTV Operators SIA badge there is a lot to learn. You need to know for example the laws pertaining to CCTV and its legal use. There a three main ones which I need to know. Then there is the different types of camera's used by the industry. There are lots of other stuff that I will need to learn. I did do a couple of mock test and just failed. The worst thing it was on the minor stuff like health and safety that I came a cropper. Typical.
I haven't had much time for anything else this week as you can imagine. I did get into the garden just to do some light weeding. While doing that I check to see what had started to sprout. The potatoes are beginning to show face as are my peas and onions. Though that seems to be it for the time being. I planted the tomatoes into a pot to start them off on the kitchen window sill. I'll try to get them to a few inches before putting them out into the new sack in the garden. There is still the chance of a touch of frost in the mornings so I want to protect them for a bit. In a few weeks they should have come up and be ready for the outside. That is if I have some luck on my side.
