I'm Off!! Thanks For Your Help!!

Post by willgoodman »

Hey Guys,

Well in about 8 hours ill be in a car on my way to Lympstone. I know i'm gonna get through those gates and thing "What the f@#k have i done" but i'll have to lump it!

I just wanted to say a big thankyou to all the guys on here, particularly moderators, Prez, Sticky, for all the help, advice and comforting words that have been passed in my direction. I can without any hesitation say that it would have been a lot harder to go through, not knowing some of the info i've found on here.

So i bid you farewell, i will continue to post and let you all know what its really like down there!! Tom, Davo, i'll see you round ctc. Rugee hurry up and get your lazy ass down there!

And if any for all the guys going through the selections and starting training soon, i wish you the very best of luck and any lads on POC's in the coming months, PM me your dates and i'll see you when you get down.

Cheers once again.

Regards

Will
Hurry up 8th December....I think i'm gonna Pass Out!!

Nice one Will - hope you all the best. I could say your very lucky, which indeed you are, but from what I can gather from your posts, you have worked so hard to get there and you deserve it.
