Just to say thanks for the help, meeting went excellently and I'm back on the straight and narrow.

Apparently I never was off the thin blue line, but he likes that I care so much. Good reference now!

Cheers

Cheers Doc, exactly what I needed to know.

Thanks Doc.

I was told by another source that since I asked for the meeting, it is classed as informal. As that, I should just walk in.

I take it that that's all rubbish then?

I know I may be going a bit OTT, but simply I want to get everything right.

Knock on door, march to a reasonable ...

Hello everyone, I'm afraid I need your advice again! Any advice is as always greatly appreciated.

I'm in the RNR, but I figured I'd get a larger audience on here, and besides this forum will have more experience.

OK, first of all, this is my situation:

I asked for a meeting this Tuesday with my ...

Naah mate.
Just'cause your paranoid dosen't mean the whole world isn't out to get you

Should I worry about the people that are always watching me as well?:)

Depends on how long you are committed to serving. I'd say go in the RN but then again if it is a thing you only want to do for a year or so, I'd say no to both.

OMSSMretd, Many thanks for that. Thast exactly what I needed to know.

Hey russian! Im in watford. I dont know of any hills in Herts, its a flat area TBH. though if you fancy running, Id go with your local park. We've got cassiobury park that I use. I need a decent pair of boots as well, but for the mo im using trainers on tarmac.

I know I should avoid hard surfaces ...

hello again guys, 'tis me!

Just to say thanks for the advice so far, I can inform you (not that you care:D) that I passed the naval RT test yesterday with no bother. Whoever told me it wasnt hard was right.

So, cracking on.........

Next up is the medical/fitness test. They said that it would be ...

Bit loud arent you, for someone coming here for advice???
