i had a quick look on google about raleigh, and a navy website mentioned 1.5mile timed run, 300m shuttl run, pressups and push ups as the required physical tests. and i'm sure i read somewhere that raleigh is a lot less strict a course than it used to be.

well i've been training for a while now. i can do the 1.5 run much more comfortable now, and have started practicing press-ups (i tried the other day and could only manage 15!!)

apart from that, should that be enough physical training for raleigh?


cheers.

i wonder if the armed forces can go on strike?

it would be quite amusing to see the fire brigade having to fight conflicts in the middle east. that would be some turnaround!!

Navy Cutbacks!!

i've heard some crappy news, that Geoff 'penis face' Hoon is going to cut thousands of royal navy positions.

i'm gonna be furious if by the time i start at raleigh, they say, sorry, we can't take you now. if that happens, RN should go on strike.

anyone at raleigh heard about this yet?

:evil:

they're gonna make sure they can get as much use out of them before they return them.
parading them on television, in blindfolds, confessions etc.

and i doubt they will return all the equipment.
