Mr November! *IDEA*
Haha wonder if the Board boys will do a calendar for the gals.... rippling abs and moobs ahoy!!!
JVB is Mr November, I think Alanbelfast should be Mr August in light of his success, and here's hoping GCBC is Mr September!!!
Okayyyyy way off topic now, I'm going back to the girls thread where I belong.....:p
LOL MrsGH, but don't want to get your hopes up too much. I think it's always better to under promise and over deliver Maybe I could just get Neil from the website to 'pretend' he's me Only fair I think for promoting his website
I think we can come to an agreement on a boys calender if you girls are game too??? Although me and Alan will resemble Right Said Fred with our 'hair' styles (or lack of) minus the sexuality confusion (:eek:)0 -

Are you saying that you and Alan are follicly(sp?) challenged?? LOL
No not challenged. It's our style! Think Jason Statham and Bruce Willis (Alan's the older one LOL) 0 -

Hi Kirksbabe
Yes you will have your eyes tested with and without lenses.
A tip - ......Go in with them out as they will check your eyes without correction first. Nothing as bad as having to take them out and seeing a blurry mess!
Another tip is - and this came from a consultant ophthalmic surgeon - When asked to read a certain line and you are having trouble - make an effort, even if you make a letter up. If they hear you say ' no sorry cant read that' then they think you are as blind as a bat. They at least want to no if you are just having trouble with the shapes of the letters. SO if having trouble.......continue with ...........a z.....p d e etc etc.
And relax and squint your eyes as this sometimes relaxes the eye and you momentarily see better.
If really worried about your eye test - get t hem tested by only an ophthalmic surgeon or consultant etc. If all is OK then get them to give you a report as evidence as their test is a lot more detailed than the the psni eye test.
Hope this helps

Kirksbabe. Pretty much what Alan said above. It's easy to think that you can't see a letter but take a moment, squint hard and try again; then guess
Do you not have any glasses? If you do then take them instead because as Alan said you are tested aided and unaided. Glasses just make it easier for you. Good luck.0 -

Hello everybody
Just did a/c yesterday so no idea as yet if I'll even be doing a medical but was having a nosy on the Consensia sight at the eyesight requirements again (as I'm a little worried about the unaided bit) and the criteria seems to have been changed?? This is now how it is set out...
Vision
Binocular vision 6/6 aided or unaided
(if visual aids are used must have 6/12 or better in best eye
Unaided acuity 6/36 binocularly
Near vision N6 aided or unaided
Normal visual fields
Severe colour deficiency not acceptable
Am visiting my optician on Thursday and am now not sure what I need to tell him. Does it mean I must have 6/12 in best eye without lenses or with? Ahhhhhh....thanks for any info
Edited....Just re-read what I'd written and I'm thinking I have to have 6/12 unaided in best eye - whatever that means lol.0 -
I would take this info to the opticians with you and see if you would pass. I did with my optician and she said no problem.

Hello again everybody
Visited the optician today armed with the eyesight requirements printed off consensia's site and she is confident my eyesight is good enough - Yay!!!!!!! Don't have to worry about laser surgery now! Now I just have to actually get a medical :rolleyes:
Thanks for the advice as usual you lot
Right, off to bath the little one - she looks like she's been up the chimney today (that's what happens when daddy is left in charge :mad:).

Dear Fountain of all knowledge, just back from holiday and got my letter to say I have passed AC, had already completed vetting forms before the July hols, just wondered how quickly you get called for the medical? I also wondered how you find out where you are on the merit list? XX Clueless 0
