24, Started training in October last year. PRMC is on 2 March :D
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... 'F*ck, what a trip!'

Start Basic 24th May

42. I have applied for PRMC later this year.

I have had a reply that I will be accepted on the basis of

a) I can pass all the tests
b) I can get hold of that DeLorean in "back to the future"
