Cheers man.

Yes its for Dublin, and I did my retests in the afternoon in the curragh in June

The only thing I'm worried about is that I'm heading to a gig on Sunday and I'm worried about the hearing test.

if it was me i would put in ear plugs you can get them in the chemist for about 2 euro and you will still hear the gig.i use them all the time when im out shooting,you have to protect your hearing you wouldnt want a gig to destroy your chance at a great future.

Thanks for the idea. Ye it would be pretty silly to miss out just for a gig.

I wonder if all goes well would I be in with a chance for the 1st platoon

no prob ya it sure would be silly ...i dont think anyone knows what platoon they are going into at this stage.but would it matter once you get in.

It wasn't me!

In all seriousness, skip the gig. A lot of the tones in the hearing test are very subtle. Ear plugs will mitigate against some of the noise trauma, but not all of it, and it's a very small price to pay for confidence in passing, when it comes down to it.

Has anyone being offered a place yet ?

Irishboy!

Anyone from Curragh had there medical yet?

Axelf0128

I done my medical on the 17th and I was told we were in first platoon so not sure wat the cut off date of the medicals is for the first platoon,

No one has been offered place yet either kaka I say it will be two weeks before the date we go in, I'm still waiting on bloods to come back it will be 10 days on Thursday so if I don't hear back I'll take it as good news cause when it comes to blood tests no news is good news

For anybody who has done their medical, how did you get documentary evidence of getting all your immunizations done?

Is it your local health office or your old G.P?
