My contract should be with me by Friday apparently. So I would assume yous will all get urs today?? maybe tomorrow??

And yeah sure Carlty I'll be Liaison for boardies. Ur right it can't be all that likely there will be another English guy. Plus that means you all have to be nice to me.

I'll be having none of that 'bloody english' malarky hehe

So the M to F ratio isn't lookin good... and worse I'll betcha one or 2 of the girlies are married Mind you... one of two of the 'boysies' probably are too

Well I can confirm I am def not married!!

carlty888

DownMtber (and the other guys in blue squad),

I am married, so you're welcome to my share of the ladies.

Err.... not that they're mine to give of course. :rolleyes:

carlty888

So we have eight guys, three girls and one unconfirmed.

Chatterbox08 - M/F?

I thought so too, but you never know. I've met some really talkative men too. I wait for confirmation from Chatterbox. :rolleyes:

Regarding the marriage-issue..... you running from it? :pac:

PC Inwaiting

Yeah I think it is safe to say Chatterbox is a girl.

You need to remember us girlies are not allowed to wear make up, I don't know about the others but I will not be looking too hot, I love my make up, totally worth it though.

Doesn't every man try to? :P lol the running is not going so well atm tho

PC Inwaiting

Ah you men are shocking, just committ and stop running. I doubt it will kill you.

carlty888

I'll have you know that I have been committed. How I passed the medical is beyond me. :rolleyes:

Bring on the Trumpets!!

Yeah, i'm pretty sure it is bad for your health...

It mightn't kill me but i'm quite sure horrible things will happen.

Anyway, you don't seem to be committed just yet either

Haha. I think your postman has pinched it for himself.......you should totally run after him and cause a scene!

DownMTBer

Agreed! Video it and post it here for us!!

squirrel81

oh can't wait to get home now to get a butchers at the pack!! I dont know how Im going to last 7 weeks to get started, just too excited

PC Inwaiting ... know exactly how you feel about the make up, I never leave the house without it on, wonder how they feel about fake tan?

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

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!!!

PC Inwaiting

Just got my pack, it's finally real!!!!!!!!!

carlty888

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.

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.

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

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:

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

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

.......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

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.
