Had my Eye test on Tuesday. Hardest thing was finding a parking space. Looking forward to the interview now but I'm a little concerned about my lack of progress with press ups. Will wait and see what is said at my RMAD.

Good effort Justin, I joined through the Canterbury office - many moons ago. I initially went to the Army office (to join the Corps

) and was laughed out of the place by a para stripey (fair one) but only after I'd made it clear that I'd only consider the paras if the Corps wouldn't have me.
You've some challenging times ahead but such a lot to look foward to - it's a great life.
