Volvo feeds on the Vampire Tribe
This post has moved!

Vampire trend
In case you haven't noticed there is a huge vampire trend on the net. This is fuelled amongst others by Summit Entertainment's upcoming motion picture "New Moon", HBO:s True Blood, the CW:s Vampire Diaries, and now recently... Volvo.Contrary to common belief vampires are not only for kids, because Neilsen reports that the "New Moon" website is over-indexed among 25 to 34-year olds. They also found that women are over-represented by 44 percent.
HBO's True Blood
True Blood is one of HBO:s flagships and is about vampires that now openly live among humans.
HBO hired Digital Kitchen to create an interesting ad campaign for the second season of True Blood. They hooked up with six major brands, such as Harley Davidson and Gillette to create mock ads targeted for vampires. They also made movie virals that were spread across the net.
According to DK the initial press and PR buzz exceeded their wildest expectations. The premier episode of the second season of True Blood lured more viewers the Sopranos finale two years ago, and it was up 51 percent over last season's finale.
HBO also runs BloodCopy, a fake blog for vampires.
Summit Entertainment's New Moon
New Moon is the second film in the Twilight series based on novels by Stephenie Meyers and it has a digital initiative of it's own. The movie invaded MySpace a few weeks ago offering free streaming of the soundtrack, video footage, an iPhone app, pre-ordering of tickets and much more. The Twilight Twitter account opened on October the 12th, but already has over 147 000 users. Mashable predicts that their Twitter account will hit one million followers in record speed, placing it in the top 10.
The connection between Volvo and vampires is made through the Twilight series. The lead vampire, Edward Cullen, drove a Volvo C30 in the first film and has upgraded to XC60 in New Moon. Volvo and Stephanie, the author of the novels, let's us know that this unlikely combination was not the result of deal-making. Stephanie consulted her car-crazed brother about the brands her leading characters should drive. Regardless of what you believe the Volvo C30 was given four minutes in the first Twilight movie.
Volvo didn't really "do anything" the first time around, but they are now seizing the moment to cater to vampire lovers around the world. Linda Gangeri, Volvo's national advertising manager, sees this as an opportunity to get out of the "saftey" strongbox that has defined Volvo for years. She claims that Volvo noted an increased interest for the C30 amongst 20- to-30-year-olds after the first Twilight release.
Volvo's vampire ambitions include ads, social media and interactive games. The microsite WhatDrivesEdward.com is the glue that keeps the campaign together. It let's all vampire fans know that the lead character Edward loves his Volvo's XC60. It invites people to compete for Volvo XC60 by playing a game, where participants are encouraged to work together to answer questions by collecting hidden clues across sites like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Flickr.
Prestige Volvo in NJ is going straight for the money as they celebrate a Twilight Madness Celebration Sale during the movie premier weekend.
Volvo is doing some real tribal marketing, but the opportunity more likely stumbled across them than the other way around. It has been amusing to read the bewilderment among traditional marketing sources. Some say that Volvo is targeting tweens, and others girls and their moms. Volvo itself says that they are targeting 20-to-30-year-olds. A definition of the Vampire Tribe that cuts across traditional variables would have served them well. It will be interesting to see what they come up for the next Twilight film, and if this will give them a savoury taste for more tribaling.

Future Farm Food and Fuel LLC of rural Baldwin, Stevens Engineers of Hudson and Sajan Inc. of River Falls have been named recipients of St. Croix Economic Development Corporation's 2011 business of the year awards.
Ryan Sicard, president of St. Croix Economic Development Corporation, announced the EDC's selection of the following companies as recipients of the 2011 business of the year awards in St. Croix County:
Future Farm Food and Fuel LLC (rural Baldwin) as 2011 Emerging Business of the Year (based in St. Croix County and in business for five or fewer years)
Stevens Engineers (Hudson) as 2011 Small Business of the Year (29 or fewer employees)
Sajan Inc. (River Falls) as 2011 Business of the Year (30 or more employees)
"This year's award winners reflect the diversity of businesses in St. Croix County," said EDC president Ryan Sicard. "Future Farm introduces sustainable elements that are aligned with new products in modern agriculture. Stevens Engineers has a track record of more than 35 years, and now it is a certified women's business enterprise. Sajan is a home-grown, high-tech company that has a global footprint with offices in North America, Europe, and Asia."
The companies will be honored at an awards banquet o Thursday, Feb. 16, Kilkarney Hills, rural River Falls.
About the 2011 Winners
Future Farm Food and Fuel: The terms "sustainable," "green" and "locally grown" are increasingly important among consumers.
John Vrieze of Baldwin Dairy and business partner Steve Meyer had a vision to complement Vrieze's Baldwin Dairy, a 100-year-old family farm. They created Future Farm to use the waste streams of farms and other operations to create food, fuel and revenue and to reduce the impact on the environment.
Meyer serves as director of operations for Future Farm. The state-of-the-art aquaponic greenhouse in rural Baldwin uses the fuel from the dairy farm to minimize CO2 emissions, which reduces the carbon footprint. The 27,000 square foot aquaponic and hydroponic system produces all-natural vegetables and tilapia fish without chemicals or pesticides. Fancy leaf lettuce, vegetables and herbs are grown in an environment powered by biogas from the nearby dairy farm.
The tilapia provide nutrient rich water that fertilizes the plants so commercial chemicals are not needed. Future Farms also produces a natural fertilizer that is especially created for the consumer market. The company provides consulting services to help other dairy operations enter the sustainable, locally grown markets.
Stevens Engineers Inc.: Stevens has been providing professional engineering and planning services to public and private sector clients since 1973. Their clients include municipalities, counties, state agencies, watershed districts and private entities.
Angela Popenhagen and Scott Ward are the principals of Stevens, having purchased the company from the previous owner in February 2007.
Popenhagen is a LEED accredited professional and with her majority interest in the company, Stevens Engineers is a certified women's business enterprise.
Ward has gained a strong, national reputation in planning, consulting and designing ice rinks. This has allowed Stevens to provide consulting services on over 100 ice rink projects such as the Phoenix Coyotes training facility (Scottsdale, Ariz.); Ice Skating Center (Pasadena, Calif.); Schwan's Super Rink at the National Sports Center (Blaine, Minn.) Division 1 colleges facilities such as Amsoil Arena (Duluth, Minn.); Sanford Center (Bemidji, Minn.) and Kohl Center expansion (Madison).
Other services provided by Stevens include comprehensive planning, geographic information (GIS), surveying, and site and land development.
Sajan Inc.: Sajan was found in 1997 by Shannon Zimmerman and his wife and partner Angel Zimmerman.
The business emerged as a technology company but in responding to market demands, quickly adapted the offering to blend both language technology and service as a way to offer a more complete solution to clients.
Today Sajan is the leading global provider of cloud-based language translation services and software. Sajan has global companies as clients that are served in offices in the U.S., Europe, Asia and India.
From River Falls, the company provides language translation solutions to customers selling their products into global markets or those customers otherwise requiring language translation of many varieties of content.
Language is often a barrier in global commerce, and the demand for effective language translation continues to grow. Sajan offers consulting services, solutions services and managed services to its clients. Industries served include life sciences, software, e-commerce, manufacturing, legal and travel, hospitality and leisure.
This is the 18th annual business recognition program for St. Croix EDC. The EDC was established in 1993 as a private, non-for-profit organization that operates as the independent economic development of St. Croix County. Reflective activities include marketing and communications, business retention, expansion, recruitment, new business start-ups and legislative advocacy.

As I took Mr. C's hand at the front of the aisle, I felt a huge sense of relief. We were finally here! It was finally happening! He looked so handsome, and I felt as beautiful as I think I may ever feel. It was almost like an out-of-body experience. All of our preparations had led to this, and we were going to be married in a matter of moments.
The ceremony that we prepared together was meant to be a mix of traditional and lighthearted elements. We wanted it to be not too formal, personal enough to mean something, and memorable for everyone. I think we achieved that, as I heard from many guests afterward how much they enjoyed the ceremony. Most of all, they commented on how un-stuffy and "real" it all was, and how much laughter and love they felt. (Me, too!) Here is how it all went down.
As the judge introduced the ceremony and welcomed our guests, the rain started coming down harder, and I remember watching the water run down the windows in sheets. It's hard to see in our photos (in fact, it kind of looks sunny and wonderful outside!), but in this picture you can see that one of our photographers caught me watching the rain.
We made it to the pavilion a little damp, but really no worse for wear!
After ditching the umbrella and making some readjustments, we kept going, and I heard the first notes of Reckless Kelly's "Wicked Twisted Road" coming from Stephen's guitar. Mr. C and I are both big fans of Reckless Kelly, and I chose this song because of its beautiful guitar work, but also because I wanted Mr. C to recognize the music rather than just have it be background noise. Now it has even more of a special meaning for both of us.
While I waited with my butterflies, the ceremony was getting underway in the pavilion. Here is what it looked like all set up before the guests arrived.
Glorious glass wall!
The site coordinator, day-of-coordinator, and florists all did an amazing job making it look beautiful indoors. I couldn't have imagined it any better, really. With all those windows, it even felt like we were outside, but without the rain, mud, and mugginess. Perfection! Here are a couple more shots of the flowers:
Yay, I got back on the horse! I'm hoping to plow through the rest of our recaps before baby C makes an appearance in a few months. I think that should be manageable, no?
So, we left off after we'd wrapped up our pre-ceremony portraits, and I shared some details of our bouquets and bouts with you. After the portraits, we all headed back to the getting ready rooms to hang out and hide from soon-to-be arriving guests.
The boys cracked some bottles of Shiner and settled in to wait.
The boys, pretending to be Mad Men extras. |
The girls occupied themselves with one final detail—veiling the bride. Chicago J took on the duty of making sure the veil was firmly tucked into my hair.
Hive, I have completely been neglecting my wedding recaps. I am determined to pick them up again soon so you can all check out the details and the ceremony and all the fabulous fun we had at the reception.
It's a story that I definitely want to see through to the end!
But before I get back on the recap horse, I should tell you why, exactly, I've been on such a long hiatus.
Or maybe I'll just show you instead:
Surprise!!! Yup, Mr. C and I are expecting a little Cauldron in June. It's amazing to think that in just a few months' time, we'll be welcoming a tiny addition to our newly created family. It's had me a bit distracted, to be sure!
Anyway, now that you know what I've been up to and why I've been so absent around here, I promise I'll get back to those recaps, post haste. I miss you all!
Before we move on to the ceremony, I want to show y'all some of my favorite details of the day! First, the bouquets and boutonnieres. I LOVED our bouquets. They were absolutely gorgeous, and exactly what I had hoped for. Posey really knocked it out of the park.
My bouquet included beautiful garden roses, ranunculus, dahlias, antique hydrangea, tea roses, scabiosa pods, dusty miller, and lots of other pretty stuff. It also smelled AMAZING. I had asked for something with light and creamy tones, with the antique hydrangeas worked in, and this fit the bill exactly. My favorite flower, alstroemeria, was also used in all the bouquets and flower arrangements as an accent. In the photo on the right, you can see the heirloom jewelry that the Posey girls tied to my bouquet stems for me. (And my manicure wound up being "Mimosas for the Mr. & Mrs." In case anyone loves nail polish as much as I do and cares about that info.)
And look what else was tucked into my flowers…
Next, our parents and siblings came out to join us for group shots. As the casts were changing, there were a couple more fun candids:
Chicago J snapped this one with her phone. (Personal photo)
The weather kept holding up for us (woohoo!), so we decided to keep on going with bridal party and family photos outside. First, though, there is this funny candid shot of all of us as we were getting assembled for the group shots. Clearly Mr. C was happy to have a beverage back in his hand.
Haha! Totally cracks me up.
First up, Mr. C and his groomsmen:
After sharing a few quiet moments together during our first look, we started off our portraits under the outdoor ceremony arch.
We decided to have a first look on our wedding day for a number of reasons. Chief among those were 1) I didn't want to blubber and bawl my way down the aisle upon seeing Mr. C for the first time that day, so I figured if I were going to cry, I'd prefer to do it in advance and 2) we both felt quite strongly about getting 99% of our formal photos out of the way before the ceremony so we could enjoy more time with our guests at the party.
While I finished getting ready, the boys were hanging out in the pavilion with some beverages, patiently awaiting my arrival.

Remember the rain I woke up to that morning? The skies had suddenly cleared, so we decided to attempt to take as many photos as possible outside. Hooray! We had some umbrellas on standby just in case, but the outlook was good for at least the next hour or so. Beto asked Mr. C to stand on what would have been our ceremony aisle (had we been following our original outdoor-ceremony plan) and wait for me to walk up behind him.
After I was done hamming it up in my gown, everyone was smiling.
Something was making us giggle, anyway. / Photo by Lindsey & Beto Photography
Now it was time to put on my jewelry, shoes, and garter. The necklace was my something new, and the hankie was my something old—an Irish bridal hankie gifted to me by a teacher at my elementary school back when I graduated high school. I've kept it tucked away for many years, waiting for this day.
As I've mentioned in other blog entries, my wedding dress was definitely one of my favorite parts of this whole wedding adventure. I could not wait to wear it (and to finally show Mr. C!), so I was pretty excited when it was time to get dressed, because I finally got to wear the dress for longer than a fitting appointment!
The dress, on a lovely hanger my mom made showing my married name (edited for privacy). Personal Photo
We got the dress down off its hanger, and I stripped down to my undergarments (no photos of that, thankfully!). Mama C helped me put the dress on.
After a nice drive out of Austin to Driftwood with my girls and my mom, we made a quick stop to pick up my wedding dress from a friend whose house is pretty close to Pecan Grove (thanks PJ!) Shortly afterward, we pulled into Pecan Grove, met up with our photographers, and headed inside to the bride's room to finish getting ready.

The florist also arrived shortly after we did, and when she brought the bouquets into our room, I started crying happy tears! They were so beautiful, and exactly what I'd hoped for. (More on the flowers later!)
On the late September morning of our wedding, I awoke to this rather wet view of Austin:
Rain on your wedding day: not so ironic
Well, shoot. It had been raining for at least 24 hours, and I knew the ground at our wedding site would be totally soaked. Even if it didn't rain during the actual ceremony, it was pretty darn unlikely that we'd be having the ceremony outside. (Picture chairs, shoes, etc. sinking into muddy lawn…not so nice.)
Mr. C and I have been married for a little more than two months…which means it's about that time, hive.
Yup, it's time for wedding recaps!
One of my favorite photos from our wedding day.
Photo by Lindsey & Beto Photography
We received our amazing wedding photos from Lindsey & Beto Photography just after Thanksgiving, and it's been so much fun reliving the big day through all of their images. Our wedding day truly came together just as I had hoped, and after two months of marriage, I still think fondly about all the love we felt and all the fun we had. Lindsey and Beto's photos captured so much of that love, fun, and celebration, that I know their images will keep all those moments fresh in our memories for many years to come.

Worst Fund Drive at KPFA in a Decade - Save KPFA Shows Crevasse |
KPFA, the venerable Bay Area community radio station, posted its worst fund drive results in a decade, with collapsing support focused on its daily news programs. The Pacifica Evening News: 31% loss in support
Letters and Politics: 25% loss in support Against the Grain/Living Room: 22% loss in support Concerned Listeners/Save KPFA, a wellstone democratic club-based support group for some of the stations long-term staff, hailed the return of Brian Edwards-Tiekert to an AM slot as the saving of the station. Unfortunately, that's not what happened. The station raised less than it ever has and the gaudy numbers bragged about came at the expense of other programs, out-of-signal-area donations from LA that KPFA can't keep, and a disastrous fall in Democracy Now's numbers after being ejected summarily from drive time to 6:00am. The decline in support for Democracy Now from year to year: 66% The overall AM lineup from 6am to 9am - 13% less than last spring. One fact to note is the only daily programs that did not have an 20%+ drop in support were Flashpoints and Hard Knock Radio which maintained consistent levels of support from May of 2011 - within 2%. Their donors were apparently impervious to emails begging for all donations to be made at 7:00am. What can we learn from this? In the same 25-day period, the sister station in LA raised over $900,000. The sister station in New York, troubled as it is, raised over $800,000. KPFA's $640,000 is not the result of economic conditions. It is a direct result of internal attacks being waged on the station from some of its staff and their supporters, who have demonstrated no ability to control the station's budget, adapt to new media technologies, or bring in creative and innovative programming from new community sources. 55% of total revenues, over $350,000 was raised for KPFA by unpaid staff during this drive, who listen to their work described as "amateurish" on a constant basis by some of their fellow workers. Only $211,000 was raised by CWA staff (less if you exclude the Flashpoints and Hard Knock staffs who do not subscribe to the Save KPFA point of view). This is at a station that has 1.85 million dollars in direct salary and benefit costs annually. Doesn't add up. What can you do? A few things.... 1) Call out the foolish recall attempt against KPFA LSB member Tracy Rosenberg, whose dire crime was to point out the obvious problems. This quixotic kill-the-messenger campaign is costing KPFA tens of thousands of dollars. -- Vote NO or don't vote at all -- Go to stopthekpfarecall.org and post a note of support for telling the truth and working on the real problems 2) Send in a donation, small or large as you can afford, online at http://www.kpfa.org and add a note that you are donating to support real community radio not save-kpfa-radio. 3) Think about running or finding a good candidate to run in the upcoming board elections with the pro-community radio slate. This can be turned around with the talent and energy of the Bay Area, but not without your help. You can keep in touch via http://www.supportkpfa.org Media is power, but only if it is used well. When it is subverted to maintaining a failed status quo, then you see the fighting over a dying carcass. Demand better. We can do better. People's media is real. So are 59,00 watt transmitters. It belongs to us.

City Council Votes To Pay Fire Chief
Published: Wednesday, December 5th, 2012 |
The Glasgow City Council decided to follow the recommendation of an appointed committee and pay the fire chief $500 a quarter, beginning Jan. 1. "I was a fire chief once. The chief does a lot of work at the fire hall and spends time in meetings and training. This probably doesn't cover expenses for gas, time and wear and tear on his vehicle," said Councilman Neil Chouinard. "The fate of the fire department really depends on the chief." City Clerk Stacey Amundson surveyed other towns and found that some pay their chief, while others don't. The city's auditor, Doris Leader at CHMS, said it is not a problem to pay the chief of a volunteer fire department. Fire Chief Brandon Brunelle did not ask to be paid a wage. "I do it because I enjoy it," Brunelle said. In other business, the Council authorized Director of Public Works Bob Kompel to bid up to $10,500 on a used MDU truck for the Water Department. The 1995 truck has what the department needs: a lift gate, four-wheel drive and a toolbox. Kompel will post bids on the Internet auction that runs from Dec. 6 to 12. Kompel told the Council that leaks in the fire hall roof have been patched and someone would arrive on Wednesday to look at the roof for replacement. He said one quote has been received from a certified contractor about removing asbestos upstairs in the Civic Center and another quote is coming. The asbestos was in spray used in texturing the walls. The sewer lagoon project is pretty close to being wrapped up, Kompel said. The tests are coming back good. Responses are coming in from residents on Ayr Street about establishing a lighting district. A yes vote from a majority of the 18 households is required to create the district. There are currently 28 lighting districts in Glasgow, and the charges vary according to the square footage of each lot. Because City Attorney Dave Gorton has a conflict regarding the prosecution of a case coming up in City Court, the Council agreed to appoint two attorneys from Chinook as special assistant city attorneys to prosecute the case. The city is cutting trees on the levee, starting with those in a park, said Street and Parks Department chief Johnnie Peterson. This is a requirement of the Corps of Engineers, which said the levee failed its standards. The city is in a two-year trial program to regain certification. "We decided to start with ours so people can't complain," Peterson said. Click Here To See More Stories Like This |

Tempo Tuesday
NPR questions Is Opera Stuff (Only) Rich People Like? How can we, as young professionals, change that narrative?
Should our passion for great art come with the ire of others? The New York Times, in an article discussing a successful year of fundraising at the Metropolitan Opera, received some harsh commentary:
In the comments section, vitriol against the Met donors spewed hot and heavy. "At least some of those sickening Wall Street bonuses are going to good use," wrote one reader. "Sounds like at least a few folks can afford to pay more taxes," groused another. One more sample: "Just as drug money built the Miami skyline, the corrupt nature of New York's financial center will continue to fund the monuments of their success."

Many people have problems using punctuation marks correctly. Recent technological developments such as email, text messages and online instant messaging have required many English expressions to be simplified and shortened, prompting many people to question whether we still need punctuation at all. In this program, we explore the reasons for the continuing importance of learning to master punctuation.
Previous airings of "Punctuation Explained" on:
Examine some common punctuation errors and pitfalls, and see how to improve our written expression. We'll look in detail at the functions of colons, semicolons, dashes, parentheses and ellipses. These punctuation marks are often avoided in everyday writing, due to confusion about their features and functions. In this program we offer some simple rules to optimize the use of these punctuation marks, and demonstrate that effective punctuation needn't be complicated.
Episode Number: #103
Length: 20 minutes, 2 seconds.
English, Widescreen
Return to TopLearn about the five most commonly-used punctuation marks: capital letters, full stops, question marks, exclamation marks and commas. Join us for an interesting look at how punctuation rules enable us to make ourselves understood more clearly.
Episode Number: #102
Length: 18 minutes, 3 seconds.
English, Widescreen
Return to TopSome of the most misused and misunderstood pieces of punctuation are also the smallest. This program provides a practical review of two important punctuation marks - apostrophes and speech marks. We begin with the troublesome apostrophe, its origins, functions and the reasons why it remains a necessary part of the English language. The program provides a detailed look at how to use apostrophes to indicate possession and to spell contractions. We also revise the proper use of quotation (or speech) marks, and examine some common errors in using these tricky punctuation marks in written expression.

PDF launched PDtrials, as a community initiative led by PDF in collaboration with the American Parkinson Disease Association, The Michael J.

Environmental Test Chambers
Our large scale climate controlled environmental chambers allow us to evaluate and precisely measure the impact of a product or service on indoor air quality.
We specialise in the assessment of key areas of concern that relate to indoor air quality, such as indoor particulate contaminants, including ultra-fine particles, virus, bacteria, mold and toxins (including endotoxin).
We are experts in investigating indoor environmental factors impacting on health. The constant drive for energy efficiency is further impacting on air exchange in the built environment and can have a negative impact on indoor air quality.
We investigate the impact of various electrical appliances and household products on indoor environmental pollution using state-of-the-art analytical methods and models.
Our walk in, climate controlled environmental test chambers are used to study the impact of consumer products such as air conditioners on circulation or re-entrainment of hazardous particulates.
The chambers give us the ability to precisely control parameters such as temperature, relative humidity, air quality and air exchange rate. The air composition can be accurately measured and adjusted using our state of the art air handling system that controls air exchange. A double skin and ante room further isolates the chamber from any influences in the surrounding atmosphere.
Specialist monitoring instruments measure concentrations of suspended particulates and the levels of other harmful airborne pollutants such as allergens and viruses.
Outside the chamber there is a computer control system which is equipped for remote manipulation of climatic parameters and real time data capture and modelling.
The main chamber is a purpose built ASTM standard chamber of 28.5 m³ capacity. It is constructed from stainless steel with all materials complying with low VOC emission requirements. The air change rate can be controlled within a range from 0.38 to 30 Air Changes per Hour (ACH). Temperature and humidity levels can be controlled across a wide range at all ACH rates. The main chamber is placed at the centre of the test facility with the four analytical laboratories (bacteria, virus, mold and allergen) placed in a hub and spoke format to allow rapid multifaceted examination of all samples that are generated.

Riders Passion Windshield/Bolt Mount ClockReviewed by: Ron (pilot1559) Reviewed for: 2007 Blue, Silver 1800 VTX1800T (Tourer) Used for: < 1 month Ratings: Overall Rating: 2 Ease of install: 5 Value: 1 Would buy again: no Review Summary: Looks good, nice little addition, but WAY too expensive for what it is. It's a wrist watch surrounded by a rubber band stuffed into a plastic housing. The bolt that comes with the unit that mounts it to the windshield is a crappy phillips head stainless steel screw. My windshield uses chrome socket head pan head bolts. I had to tap the mount to accept my OEM bolts. Personally I feel it is worth about 1/3 the asking price.

Neat application. I took a speed reading class a while ago, and it's pretty amazing. You're right about losing the pacing, but for more informational text, it works really well. Once you get to the point where you stop saying the words in your head while you read, your speed really increases. It's incredible.

They're in top gear with driving skills
A GROUP of skilled drivers who help others become an Advanced Motorist have been selected by the Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM) for the Top Group award for the 2011 year and a prize of £1,000.
It will be the second time the South Warwickshire Group of Advanced Motorists has achieved this honour and the only car group to win it twice.
The group runs its Skill for Life driver courses from Warwick on Sunday mornings.
Recently, three members of the Dolphin family, including Amy, of Warwick, took the course and all three passed the optional test to become Advanced Drivers.
Along with road safety discussions and demonstrations, they took part in a series of drives with the group's Advanced Motorist observers, with one highlight being a skid-control driving session.
Amy, aged 31, who works in the leisure industry, said: "It helped get me out of my own little 'in-car bubble' and have greater road awareness."
