    I suppose with the shear length of the campaign some people may have just moved onto other things by now, maybe even forgetting about the application until receiving a phone call this week. Either way it’s absolutely fantastic we have two more boardies joining us. What a class it will be.

    I wonder if they anticipated securing enough funds for a larger squad this time. That could be why they had so many on reserve, if they were just awaiting confirmation of the funds being available?

    Yeah, feeling pretty good to be honest, didn't expect to be confirmed for Nov so had resigned myself to a bit of a longer wait.

    I think a few beers tomorrow in celebration are in order and then the running shoes will be firmly strapped on for the foreseeable.

    How are you feeling about it, excited for the induction and start?

    I’m the same as yourself. Few drinks tonight with friends and ramping up the training again. I really can’t wait for it all to start. Life changing week.

    It really is, can't wait to get stuck in, bring on the early starts and late finishes.

    Wow. Brilliant news.

    One of yous better do a headcount at the induction day :D

    Either class sizes are creeping up again or people have just moved on with their lives.

    Or people have deferred to next intake.
