    We will miss you on here but I know we will see you in garnerville shortly. And possibly working with you in the very near future :)

    Phew, mop gone and a bit of peace and quiet at last (only joking mop, we know you're still watching!)

    Anyway, everyone knows the secret handshake for the big day, right? ;-)

    The one to know if who you are speaking to is a boardie or to know if they are a peeler in the making?

    If Dutch's username has anything to go by I don't want to know what handshake he has been practising :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,262 ✭✭✭DesertCreat_15


    Would some of you like to do the rest of us a favour when you're in there?

    Would you be ever so kind and attempt to milk out the figures from some of the staff, im sure this would be ever so greatfully appreciated by the rest of us! :P

    Hahaha cheeky bugger, I'm sure there would be someone keen enough for a Dutch Rudder handshake (not that I'd be the one to give it to them, don't think the gf would be best pleased, nor would I for that matter!) I had my eyes lasered recently so I'll be the one with the scary/minging eyes lol

    Also, has everyone phoned yet to confirm their hotel reservation (ie details of guests and car registrations?)

    I think all of us are interested to see how many have been taken on by now! Very interested to see the size of Intake 4 since there's been about 100-120 in so far I think. Plenty of places left for people :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 23 Willow89


    Are all of you guys in the next intake on 70 or above for ac?

    Fist bump with left hand. Shake hands with right. Wearing a pink carnation in buttonhole and a trilby. Begin the conversation with "Do you know the shipping forecast?" The reply being "Full dutch rudder"

    Don't think that includes those who would've just started from intake 3 though so if there's 30 odd of them then that's 100 and then however many that's in intake 4 but there's still LOADS of places left it seems :)

    Don't worry Deks I'm right there with you with the delusions for the next intake.

    We should get a list together of all those known waiting on the call to see where we sit in the pecking order.

    Well technically it's been 1 working day so far...

    I'm not going to agonise over this wait (hopefully, ha). Could be any length of time like. Fully intend to enjoy what time I have and when it comes, it comes. The sooner the better, obviously lol

    You are quite right. Few people meeting an such but honestly wouldn't want to spoil it for anyone, although I would say they are an intense two days...

    Fenners have you tried getting on to classis yet? Just wondering as it won't let me launch anything like we were advised to do, it all just says not available beside it. Could be because I'm using an iPad but just thought I'd check with someone else! Good to meet you btw! :)

    Good to finally put a face to the name! :)

    Just doing that as we speak...well I have logged in on a tablet and it won't let me open anything either. Just says not available beside it too. Can't see it being the device problem...must be because it hasn't opened properly yet or something. I'm confused lol

    I think they mustn't have got it all opened up yet, it's saying not enrolled and I can't enrol myself on the pre induction course v1 or v2 and then on the induction course it just says not available beside all the modules. I can't figure out where the forums are either to ask about it lol


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 56 ✭✭Sdcharger


    yes, must be having some system problems cause it doesn't even let you access the old stuff as well, will give it until tomorrow then!
