Pay

Post by JayBuckley »

Hi guys, was just wondering what sort of pay do you get in your bank after tax and everything while your in training? Do you get much chance to spend it while your down in Catterick?(SP?)

After tax I think it's about £800 ish.
There is no fear, there is only the force.

Do or do not, there is no try.

Ergh, Ron Hills...
My boyfriend was wearing his for painting his flat, I've made him promise to never, ever wear them in public. Preferably burn them.

You can have peace.
Or you can have freedom.
Don't ever count on having both at once.
