Yup got a phone call and a letter yesterday telling me i was starting in less than 4 weeks time at litchfield for the Royal Signals Sparky. Problem is my first choice is Royal Engineers Combat engineer/Joiner :o

They still had my old first choice at the soldier processing board.

They told me it could be a fair few months before i can go for that and i might even have to go to scotland again? (o well i will if needs be)

Bit of a daft question, in the letter they gave me my 8 digit number (new name). Will it still be the same if i go in the engineers as i have already got it stuck in my head like a song from the radio.

Cheers.
