    I filled my shorts when I saw this thread. Thinking that the calls had already gone out. I swear to Van Damme that the rollercoaster ride that is joining the police is a cause of Cardiac Arrest.

    My 'intake eye' is twitching again, so that must mean that intake calls are going out this week. Best of luck to those who have been waiting im/patiently for the last lifetime for everything to clear, and for the phone to ring with Simon Cowell Recruitment on the other end.

    Poor shampon - I really think this process will prove too much for you to bear - I reckon you'll be RIP if you get a witheld number call this week ( even if does turn out to be only a mis-dialled number ) :D

    I'll take those odds with an accumulator at 100 to 1 that you're the first person in your intake to get a show parade for either asking for a room with a double bed, or saying "I'll change into my uniform only when I hear the magic word".

    Hi Guys

    The anticipation is literally killing me. I'm getting pains in my chest.

    Also think this whole proceess has turned me into a schizophrenic. My mood swings are extreme to say the least.

    Please someone put me out of my misery.

    Think I would rather know that I am not in than go through this any longer.

    Did you outline this in your medical forms?

    Do Some karate training for the kumite to take your mind off it horse/mare.

    Judging by the descending order in which the calls have been going out, I'm gonna say Wednesday.

    No pack for me either. Sucks.

    Do calls only go out in the morning or can we expect to get them say up to 4pm?
