    Worst case senario the full month. I'd be standing by if I were you..Ive set up a wee makeshift bed under the letterbox. What I'd really like is to invent some sort of Wallace and Gromit contraption with confuterments that brings the post automatically to the bedroom straight from the letterbox...But life's too short.

    Anyone expecting their IST result tomorrow? Only did mine last week so still have quite a wait. Best of luck to anyone who is lying in wait for the postman tomorrow. Let us know what the pass mark is.

    Hi mhairt. When I got my letter last year they just said I had passed and was progressing to the next stage. Didnt actually state in the letter what the pass mark was. So I hadnt a clue....

    Its unlikely there will be any post tomorrow. I have developed the term 'No Post Monday'. Anything posted first class on Friday would almost always arrive on Saturday. I guess there is a slim chance of post tomorrow, but I wouldnt hold my breath (or i'd die).


    Speaking of post....where the hell are bc84's and my medical results???
