But I'll scrap the idea til we know how he gets on with Selection. Ta anyway :) f@#k hell! Your not going to allow your son on holiday til he passes selection!!! Bet he is well chuffed with that one :lol: :P Very good :lol: Oh Tab, you are so far off the mark :wink: It's a kinda celebration holiday...

You're all a bunch of sarcastic buggers. kwik400, book the holiday for yourself and forget about the sprog, either that or book it for earlier in the year if your social calendar permits :wink: Good luck to your lad, and you enjoy your holiday :D :lol: Cheers ... was gonna be a last knees-up before...

I'm assuming this is a no-no? My son has passed his interviews at AFCO and the med questionnaire; he has to ring back about his selection when he's finished his GCSE's (about 2wks). We were booking a large family holiday for November - he's been told if selection goes ok, he'll probably be off for b...

Hi, Let the Medical Team know, as they will ask for the GPs Medical file on your son. If you dont let them know, your son could go to Pirbright and then get rejected on medical basis, that first morning.

Cheers for that, thought as much

Hello

Just wondered if IBD (in this case, Crohns Disease) was still a no-no to join the T.A? Understandable if it is, but wondered if guidelines changed over time at all?

Thanks

The Writer's and Artist's Yearbook is a comprehensive list of all agents and publishers, published and updated every year. I found it very helpful but sadly only managed to get published on a writer's website! The wbesite is very informative too and critique work for you. They're at www.jbwb.co.uk :)

Righto, thanks for the info

I've googled til I'm blue in the face; a couple of military mates drew a blank, so I'm asking on here in the hope someone in the know reads it :-?

Caught a couple of episodes, I found that really eye-opening...even though I had a couple of mates in there at that time, I'm still a bit shocked at what was involved

And my son still wants to join up, good for him to watch it I think.

Cheers

What channel and what time is this on???

I have a mate in the Int Corps and I believe it's quite difficult to get into? I consider him a clever, on the ball type, but even he states how hard training/courses are.

Not much help, just an opinion
