Sideshowdeb Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 It's a nightmare to have to go through all this and sole destroying, credit to you for taking it 6 times I get my results Friday so hope it's the last time I've got to go and do it , just to rub salt in the wounds to get in this country you only have to score a 4!! Are you kidding me...? I guess that explain why I struggle to communicate with so many people at work :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, hopefully it'll be all good this time round then you can start planning!!!!. Just doing my ACS training and assessments this week. Its weird doing it knowing that I'll need to forget nearly everything I know and learn the Oz way. Seems a waste of time but at least it lasts 5years just incase we come back..

Keith Posted July 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Always good to have a plan b though, typical it's ran out months before you leave but good practice to get yourself into the training frame of mind ready for Oz, I've got 4 years left on mine did L.P.G which came in handy but it hasn't really paid me back for the extra £250 I paid on top, only done a few boilers and some horse box lorry's!

Are the dvt's from flying or just one of those things. We always wear flight socks when flying, if I'm wearing shorts I look a complete prick but I don't care.

We always wear flight socks when flying, if I'm wearing shorts I look a complete prick but I don't care. Yeh eh just decided to "try before you buy" with this one Dvts came at me from nowhere and no cure but again hey oh,leg looks a mess but it's a good come back when someone is whinging or has thrown a Monday sicky! Something along the lines of "try having 3 dvt's and not having a day off sick in 10 years you whinging wart" I have a picture of you in my head in stockings and shorts that may take a while to be cured!

Keith Posted July 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Yes we got the results this morning, unfortunately we didn't get the marks needed L -7.5 R - 6.0 W - 7.0 S - 8.5 Keith is gutted he is not in from work yet but I feel so bad for him it is soul destroying going through all this especially as it has nothing to do with his capability for work or anything. He is doing another on 19th so hopefully better luck next time but thanks everyone for the well wishes and I know many of you have been through all this too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
