    Neasa, very professional and friendly young lady to train with.

    I used michael from Idrive and passed first time after only 3 lessons and pre test with him. Used girl from Irish School of motoring before that who was beyond useless.

    he told me to cancel my first test as i would fail. i was doing lessons in galway and had the test booked in castlebar and i needed a few lessons in castlebar to get the test route in my head . so i rebooked the test and got more lessons with tony and passed.

    Tony Leneghan is still listed on the RSA site, I cant post his number as the rules dont allow. Tony thought me and i passed 1st time.

    Do a search in Mayo for his surname.
