Well nobody checks your water bottle if that's what you mean.

You can't drink thoughout the Gym test, what I have to mention is when they say stock up on fluids, really do it.

The Air in the Gym is dry as a bone and it doesn't take long for your mouth to feel like a nuns.... err bottom of a birdcage.

Lucozade would be handier as it sort of lines your mouth, water just seeps in leaves you feeling dry.

Whatever you do don't get fizzy lucozade. I'm sure you'd soon be chucking it up.

One poor bloke thought he'd snack up on Snickers & mars before the tests. He ended up puking a load of chocolate and nuts into his bib :-?

Not many things bother me but I've always had a thing against Vomit, especially somebody elses.

BTW:- The only drinks you can get for free are "Tea" "water" "Water with Cordial"

Gotto buy your lucozade from the Spar.
