    Rang the gardai who have had my vetting since at least late March and they said they're posting all applicants reports up this week. Had to bite my tongue on the phone to remain cordial. Aaarrggghhhh!

    Does that mean the Gardai have completed your vetting Barnes?

    Cheers oz! I thought it was ok. The thought of it is worse than the thing itself. Didn't have problem with the air like lots of ones but my throats been scratchy anyhow. Plus with heat they'd door open so dunno if that's standard!

    Looking forward to getting stuck into online learning. Not looking forward to medical ha

    How long yours have to wait between stages? Seems to be a right bit of variation.

    Well I just got my PCA date through last week. Bit of a wait but I can live with it. Step my training up a gear and hammer it out now for the next while.

    Seems some people have had to wait a few weeks for medical date

    Cool. Yeah definitely use the time wisely. PCA Is very doable but if you let the nerves get to you, well you know what can happen.

    Obvious advice but a cool head is key imo.

    They never opened the door until people stated puking in my session lol!!!!

    Oztop I wasn't on about yours, you weren't implying that people without degrees couldn't spot things that people them with could. Tbh I'd give anyone a run for their money, friends are always saying I spot the weirdest of things lol. Just think the topic has gotten a bit bitchy. Does that person think we might meet and find out it's them. Were all supposed to be a team and work together not put each other down and be condescending just cos of a piece of paper.

    Anyway...can't wait until I'm in this stage.....

    Fair play to you guys still bantering away in here. I've kept my head down this week trying to get through another month. So frustrating that even this late in the game my vetting might not have cleared and the wait builds you up so much that bad news would be horrific!

    Ah I thought this was 'Delay email, bitch' thread, sorry for intruding yesterday! :)

    Although it's really irresponsible for someone to name a thread 'The Wait' when there's about 17 waits. :D

    I'm channeling Jesse from Breaking Bad into what I think is your auto correct error for the thread title :)

    Nearly had heart failure this evening. Was coaching today and when I finished I checked my phone. Missed called from an unknown number and 5 from voicemail. I nearly wet myself, held my breath when I rang voicemail only to hear some stupid dentist rearranged an appointment. I could have died

    This really is hell isn't it! When my phone rights from an unknown number I drop everything and answer, only for it to be some recording!

    Answering means you get more calls, just can't win ha :)

    I love how the Medical letter states 'PSNI recruitment will be in touch with you shortly'. Shortly seems to hold a different definition these days :)
