    My advice for all the folks staring in March, as soon as you get access to the online learning again get stuck in and go over the induction course and pre entry twice or more if you can. If you have any holidays owed to you before you leave work take them all. I took 8 days off to get sorted for kit and to study and I wish I had another week. You get access to all 34 definitions too which you will have to know verbatim through the course. You don't need to know them before starting GV but it's a good idea to stay one step ahead and get as many in your head as possible before starting as you'll be busy doing kit, studying other things etc that learning definitions won't be too easy because some are longer and more tricky than others and time management will be difficult.

    We had to provide a photo for the vetting.. I thought that would have been for our warrant card?
    So is it the four that we give at the induction that are going to be on the warrant card? Cause I like that one better than the ones I had done for the induction lol
