Had a few updates on my own situation. Had a phone call from JK today to arrange travel to Stone. He says he always books you a window and table seat on the train if you need to use a virgin service, which is quite nice really. So I start 26th June. Not seen anyone else on here with that start date. Should receive my uniform any day now so that will be a bit fun I suppose

Other than that ready to go! Will hopefully be at Bolton for local training but he did say today that it could be Yarnfield if Bolton isn't available. Not that it makes much difference as they prefer you to stay over midweek anyway instead of commuting

Hi mate congrats.! Glad you've had a quick turn around. The last 18 months has killed me haha could have started back in May but had a holiday booked which made it longer so perhaps that's why I'm on a sooner conference call.

Not sure what I'm doing yet just had the usual generic info so will have to see what happens on the 3rd, haven't been told I'm on Fibre like others have been told anyways.

Where you from ?? I'll be travelling down from Newcastle.

I bet that's been a tough wait! Nearly here now though!
I live in Stoke-on-Trent, takes about 20/25 mins to drive from mine to yarnfield, maybe slightly more in traffic!

Going into Day 3 now. Any questions, ask away!

Which boots do I bring down? Told only to bring one pair, but which one as they are both pretty different!

Nah, not nervous, excited - although that could change!
What assessment centre did you go too?
Have you been told what you doing yet?
Apparently, there was a conference call yesterday, were you on it?

I was at severnoaks london, i didnt get a call yesterday, first i have heard about it.
I have been told my managers name, number, given my uin and told i will be contacted about the training soon.

I don't start till the 24th of July, I have completed all 7 tasks and done the other things they are asking for such as reference, clothing, DVLA check and Scotland disclose. I was just wondering when will I next hear of them....

I was told the training team will contact you 2-3 weeks before your start date to confirm travel
