Re: TA Application Update
Exactly mate. I DID get a handy 'Mini Fitness guide' given to me as I was leaving. Though the spelling was terrible (E.g- Millitary and areobic) which should help me, as well as my 'Official British Army Training' book I bought.

Re: TA Application Update

Re: TA Application Update
Goddammit Got a stitch, ran through it, got a 2nd stitch which nearly crippled me, however since carrying on with everything else, I didnt get through this time, but have a 6 month deferral (which is slightly better than a f**k Off). SO 6 months of pushing myself more than I did before and figure ou...

Re: Joining to deplyoment
I'd imagine it would be quite a while before deployment as you dont train as often as in the Regs.......but I dont know. This is my wild guess only

Re: Finally had contact with my Local TA unit
Robbed your H4H band?? Wtf? Of all the things, I must say THAT is odd
I would ring them, just double check that everything is still 'on'. Are you having a 'day in the life' day too? Where is it you'll be joining?

Could be fun I suppose experiencing all the shouty, marchy excersisey ...

Re: STILL waiting for my start date!!
From what I've read everywhere, the same thing is happenning to alot of people. So basically, My advice is 'Be Patient' Keep working on your fitness between now and then. I'm sure I'll be in the same 'boat' when I finally get signed up. (not long now.......27th Feb )
