    I start next Monday on the October class, we had our contracts in the post last Thursday and they wanted them back before we started. We've had a few further emails with details for the course, timetables etc.

    I hope you all get called soon. :)

    We had a timetable in the post to start at 9am - 5pm and then had a further email to say arrive at 830 to get through registration etc. I have a friend who started back in March in Phoenix Pk and he told me the classes run between 830-430pm each day so I'm hoping that will be the hours after the first day so I can miss the traffic as I will be driving in and out of Dublin every day.

    We got the timetable for the year too and the good thing is we have 2 weeks off at xmas from 16/12/11 to 02/01/12 - probably be the last xmas and new year I have off for a while :eek:

    I just cant wait to start now, we've all been waiting so long now. :):)

    That's great news. Did manor hamilton give that date?

    This should be the last class of this panel so.

    thats good news alright, does that mean the next class will be in Dublin?
    I've heard conflicting rumours that every second class alternates between
    Dub and Ballinasloe,/// and then also that the remainder of all classes on the current panel are to be done in Ballinasloe. Either way I'll be just glad to be called.:)

    Ya me too, cant wait to get called, wonder how many are left on this panel, a good few seem to have the deferred so hopefully they will have enough candidates to run a class, that would be my only worry,

    yeah I know what you mean, but those that deferred will have to accept second time around , or lose their place, so there should be enough to fill a class.

    Head through the town, heading towards Athlone. Pass Fred Kilmartin's Ford Dealer on your left. Straight through next lights. Take the next left, signposted Roscommon (R357). This is Creagh Road. Pass the cemetery on your right. Pass the HSE Creagh Training Centre on your right. Keep going until you come to an industrial unit on your right, the name of the company is Parkmore Switchgear.

    The college is the next turn to the right through green pillars with metal railings, there is a FAS sign on the railings on the left.

    http://maps.google.ie/maps?q=creagh+road+ballinasloe&ll=53.337638,-8.204641&spn=0.034593,0.104628&hnear=Creagh+Rd,+Ballinasloe,+County+Galway&gl=ie&t=h&z=14&vpsrc=0&layer=c&cbll=53.337776,-8.20469&panoid=yrMqZSc6A98s9295SEJ8Ew&cbp=12,30.79,,0,6.2

    Go straight up the driveway to the end, ambulance college parking is around the rear of the building. Entrance is at the front, up the stairs to the 1st floor.

    HTH, enjoy your time there! :) Good luck to all starting!
