Its a test.

There is a Defence forces phrase known as "hurry up and wait" or "on the truck, off the truck".

Might be another week or two lads. I was down there today to do bloods. My last results got lost up in dublin.Theres was 6 of us in total. They said that the garda vetting and bloods is holding everything up. He told me to check my emails everyday, and that if dont hear anything in two weeks then give them a buzz. Im just trying not to think about it now.

I was hoping there was a delayed april fool's there but i'm guessing not.. Did they say whether or not the class will still be starting at the end of the month? or anything else?

I don't remember filling in a vetting form? Can any of you tell me what it entailed?

Name, address, etc? Might refresh my memory!

It was just a one page form for your name, dob etc and then a list for you to write down all your previous addresses. I've done 2 for them, one at the interview last year and the other a few weeks ago. We were given them to fill in while waiting around for the medicals.

Ah well hopefully the dates are all the same then, maybe they only have to give 2 weeks notice which gives us another 7-10 day wait!

Ah thanks lads, I remember filling that in alright. Well I really hope I get accepted and if it's true about the 29th then that'd be the greatest birthday present ever!

Yup bloods can take 7 to ten days to get back. But I was told i could get an email tomorrow so keep checking your emails. We will 100 per cent find out in the next 2 week.

Not to sound rude guys but I'd hazard a guess that emailing them and ringing them will do nothing but annoy whoever is on the receiving end of the calls! I'm sure they won't forget about you, it's just these things take time,especially the gardai clearance.

Best thing to do is put it out your head until you get word, but I suppose that's easy for me to say not being in your position!

Best of luck to you guys, hope when word does come through it is good

Edit: stupid angry smiley is a result of my fat thumbs and a iPod touch and in no way represents my feelings towards all of you!!!!

I suppose you are right, just going to have to find out a way to put it out of my mind for awhile and be patient....

Not in No 1s though, strangely enough.
