I drove home to get a butchers at mine (the info pack :rolleyes:). I had a quick glance through it. Can't wait to get stuck into it this evening. Toyed witht the idea of taking a half day.

Gonna hand in my notice this afternoon.

On the married side of things, I can definitely recommend it, the best thing you will ever do (after joining the psni of course)

My wife's just the same. She couldn't recommend it highly enough, but I guess she got lucky. :rolleyes::D

I can tell already you are going to be a good laugh. You wife must have a good sense of humour married to you lol.:D

Has anybody read the pack yet - £120 for a PE kits seems a bit much.

if you keep it minimal it's fine. Don't arrive looking like Jordan and you'll be fine. I wear very little make-up but I have no intention of going bare-faced. I'd empty the canteen, that's for sure!!!

You can all arrive with part of you looking like Jordan, I won't complain!

Hehe just kidding

I'll try my best. No promises though. :P Sometimes I actually feel sorry for my wife. She has it tough. Poor soul. :rolleyes:

At least we don't have to pay for the PE kit in one go. £40 a month's still a bit steep for a couple of fruit-of-the-loom t-shirts. I wonder if we have to wear those black guddies with the elasticated tops too? :rolleyes:

That was the plan. Right up until my boss announced that they were heading home on a half day. It kinda killed the mood for me.

This is a big moment. It has to be special.

MrFug · 20-01-2009 04:52PM

Wow, its all becoming very real. Maybe it's just me, but since I'm now offically in, I'm sensing my desire starting to wane a little. I think maybe a touch of cold feet? Jesus, already! How I'm gonna stick 4 weeks of GV I dunno.

I'll get over it! It's just such a huge life changing event. No-one is feeling a little... intimidated???

It'll be just like going away on a holiday camp......

...... only with lots of work, parade and a drill sergeant screaming in your lug hole.

Other than that, it'll be just like a big holiday camp.

Can't wait to finally meet you lot. No doubt we've all these expectations of people that'll be waaaaayyyyyy off. :pac:

Grats mate...

Another boardie for me to liaise with

Maybe we ought to use the top gun high five... if they only do the high five they're not a boardie... if they do the full on top gun u know they're a boardie!!

:);)

smyff · 20-01-2009 08:34PM

lmfaoooooooooooooooooooooooooo

right enough, about 20minutes ago i youtubed the exact same video

BadCopGingerCop · 20-01-2009 08:36PM

it has to be done, although there are videos on how to do it. This could be a separate traineeship in itself.

PC Inwaiting · 20-01-2009 08:56PM

Hi All

Just back from a 2 hours session at the gym, don't know if I could lift my arm to do a high five, could I just wear a name badge or something.

carlty888 · 20-01-2009 09:43PM

.......Gonna take it right in to the danger zone....... (Love that song)

Top Gun high five it is then.

Looks like we'll be having to run a few classes of our own up at the hotel;

Mrs Carlty's 'Ironing 101'
DownMTber's 'Bulling for idiots'
and now BadCopGingerCop's 'High Fiving the Top Gun way'

PS. If you want your ironing done for you, PC Inwaiting has said that she'll sell herself do it in exchange for turkish delight.

Huge congratulations Damien and welcome aboard. With your merit number you just had to be the unlucky 13th boardy.

I'm starting to feel sorry for the non-boardies in the March intake. At this rate they're gonna be in the minority. :cool:

PS. Gotta ask the Male/Female question. PC Inwaiting's trying to work out how many blokes she has to work her way through during the residential.

MrFug · 20-01-2009 10:15PM

Having shared a room with my brother for many years, I'm prepared to run a masterclass on...

How To Masturbate without Making your Bunk-mate Suspicious.
