I hope that part was directed at Smyff!!!! Lol thanks Carlty - it's quite amazing that after 15 months (or is it more???) I'm still in shock that the call finally (ever) came!

Scary biscuits.

Nope lol :eek: Although I've been hyperventilating a little less today as I start to put practicalities into place. Still think it's mad I'll ever be in the uniform policing the streets! That is of course if I get through GV - which is definitely not a given and is still scaring the pantaloons off me.

Ahhhhhhhhh off to get my brown paper bag again :eek::D

Nail and head...the 4 reasons I am hyperventilating about spending the first 4 weeks in Garnerville! More worried about missing my littleuns than being shouted at by scary big drill peeps. Also hence the name MBC - waiting til this stage in life to do a big life changing thing like this....paper.............bag.............please:eek::eek::eek:
Thanks for your confidence in me though

The first 4 weeks you have to 'live in' Monday to Friday but if there are evenings when there is nothing organised as far as I know you can leave for a while as long as you're back for bedtime (lol). I think the evenings are pretty full though but any chance I get I'll get Mr MBC to bring the nippers and we'll have dinner somewhere or something. And hopefully can do loads of studying during the week so I can spend time with them at the weekends. I'm hoping it will all fall into place! :eek:

Thank you Fo, can't believe you've had no word yet??? Why do they seem to leave you to last for some reason? Well, October definitely for you and hopefully if I get my deferral I'll be there with you

Now if I could just get over this horrible cold and get some training done I might actually get through the PE without embarrassing myself!

Well done everyone.

William- did you not get the call? Had you any missed calls?

MCC.09

Sorry 2 butt in PPYG, it might be useful tho, i had a missed call and consequently a message on my answer phone askin to ring back.

GollyMolly

I was on holiday last week, had a few missed calls from a withheld number, and got the pack in yesterday! Couldn't believe it! My merit number was just below 1000, female RC.

The next intake falls in October due to the number of weeks that seperate the intakes.
