All the best mate, I'll look you up when I get down there, remember I'm the stunningly hansom one who all the ladies in the galley (hope I got the marine speak right :P ) will be salivating over :lol: 8) :P

Good luck mate. It's all up to you now. It seems easy these days to blame somebody else or something else for failure but you have a prime opportunity to prove yourself in a harsh and uncompromising environment. You can make it work or you can screw it up (barring injury).

What I can guarantee you is that in (hopefully) 32 weeks time when you march off the drill square you will be second to no man on earth. After that....well that's when the fun really starts :wink:
