    I tried that one but mine was a year ago. As long as its no more than 3 months old I think they will accept the one you already have. Email it to Alice and see what she says.

    No stethoscope deep breaths in and out. He taps on your chest and back. I did not get the blow into the tube thingy. Good luck for Thursday.

    for those that have been waiting without word. I would like to let you know that I have just had a phone call from Mandy offering me a medical with a conditional start date in March for Reading Depot. I hope this good news will also filter to the rest of you guys.

    I had my DMI for Reading in March after it was postponed because of floods, they rang me to tell me I was successful but there were currently no spaces so I am on hold. So hopefully a space will become available soon.

    They cancelled my interview on the day just as I was walking out of the door because all the managers were getting deployed to help with the flood issues. I received an email a few days later to rebook. So I also have my new interview on 4th. (Reading Depot).
