    Hi all, hopefully see some of you in the luxurious Novotel tomorrow evening. Have decided to go by train and risk lugging home all the stuff. Leaving copious amounts of room free in my suitcase to cope with it. I too spotted Friday 10th schedule was blank, maybe they think we'll all deserve a...

    Trainee Driver - Can I apply elsewhere?

    I queried it too, it's badly worded, but I sat and passed Eurotunnel assessments, but wasn't offered a position. I recently sat a couple more that Eurotunnel don't make you sit and have been offered a position. I think if you pass them but don't get a job, you are free to take them to another...

    Good luck to those having medicals this week. I had the ECG done as soon as I got there, after having run up the road so as not to be late for my appointment! Results come out fairly quickly, they tell you there and then if you've passed, with the exception of the Drug test which gets sent...

    I'm waiting for the paperwork before I submit my resignation too. Seems the sensible thing to do. As mentioned above, with the start date as it is, contracts should really be out for next week to allow a months notice to be given.
