I saw these being advertised and i love to exercise and after logging into their account saw the brief they had on them (pardon the pun) They arrived yesterday and I must say they are the most comfortable underwear I ever purchased. No chafing after a 5k walk. Look and feel great on and Al’in underwear will now be my go too Boxer Brief Thanks Read Less

Learning how to drive is difficult , everyone is aware of this but it makes it that bit more difficult when the person who’s “experienced “ to teach is incapable of doing so or at least on the day proved it . I had completed 3 lessons with Al Dwyer and was currently carrying out my 4th lesson to date at the time. Al had taken me out on this particular day to complete my 4th driving lesson and instructed me upon entering a cul de sac to perform a reverse when at the end of a cul de sac . The cul de sac was performed in a quiet terrace in Farnaree with no traffic at that time or any time for that matter , a simple place to perform a technique I was not comfortable with at the time but learning how to drive is part of it all . When coming up to the cul de sac to do the turn itself and perform the reverse Al instructed me to reverse and for some reason I heard handbrake whether it be on his part a mistake but I certainly recall hearing the word hand brake and being a learner at the time, uncomfortable with the technique , carried out what my instructor said or at least I recall hearing the word handbrake . As I reversed in order to stop the car I pulled the handbrake and Al reached over pulled my hand off the handbrake and the car came to a stop . He asked “what are you doing “ in a contradicting way and I said “ I heard you say pull the handbrake “ he lost the plot anyways and stated “I’ve 30 year’s experience doing this and I know I wouldn’t have asked you to pull the handbrake doing a reverse “. The conversation went on in the car for some time after, between a back in fourth for my reasoning I would only pull the handbrake after hearing what he said he decided it was time for me to go home . He said I don’t think we will be going out again and joked about “are you going to pay me “ as if I was going to leave him short or something . I feel on the day he was in the wrong but what I didn’t appreciate was after his “30 years of experience “ doing this stuff he wouldn’t have lost the plot at me after only doing 4 lessons at the time and be a bit more professional and handle the situation better and maybe understanding that he too can make mistakes and may have said the wrong time at the time to me which caused me to pull the handbrake in the wrong moment . Would not recommend to anyone , disgrace the way he carried on after the incident I’ve since passed my test after him staying “ I would never have a chance “ . Very unprofessional Read Less

Al is a thorough gentleman out and out, i couldn't really recommend anyone else, by far the best driving instructor around.
