1st thing 1st, where do you live at the moment, is it in viable comuting distance from bedford, all training is done at hornsey now and no longer in bedford apaprt from on the job stuff i.e spending time with a driver, depot visit. so i do not see the rush to move maybe in a few monts time, but thats me.

I live in Dorset so commuting is out, fcc said I would be better off staying in bedford and travelling to hornsey daily, so just need a room in a house share for now till we sort something else out.

Hi Wessex,

Have you got anything sorted yet re accommodation?

Have you tried these websites:-
roombuddies.com
flatmateclick.co.uk
gumtree.co.uk
spareroom.co.uk

I believe that the practical traction training is done at Hornsey, and there may be early starts involved. So if you lived near Bedford depot, would you be able to get to Hornsey on time?

Also, where is all the classroom stuff done?? Somewhere in London I presume??

I am going for assessment next week, and am hoping to get Cambridge.
