I hope so too mate

Of course everyone has a choice, both in life and in work, and I'm sure there are enough sensible people within the industry who will trust both the union and the TOC to introduce appropriate and proportionate measures to get us moving again safely. As you say simple stuff.

Unfortunately nothing in life or work is 100% safe so I hope we are not waiting for that scenario; I would hope the aim is to reduce the risk to as low as reasonably practicable which would allow us to resume training safely.

Yep all good cheers mate, start on the 10th February, cant wait! How did you find the training?

Had my medical on the 4th November and waiting on a start date; I'm in for Bathgate.

I think 1sec is about right but hard to say. Any practice you can do can only be good thing so start high & reduce it gradually as you improve

I'll send you a PM later today mate, I'm also for bathgate & passed the MMI on Wednesday.

Well done mate

Yes doesn't make much sense, I'm in the same position and I've seen a couple of guys post that they've been in the pool for 5 months - from before the current recruitment drive which seems bizarre. What can you do though? I suppose there must be some method in the madness so I'll just continue...

Sorry Boris, any chance you could send to me too please? Thanks

What depot are you down for and have you been in touch with HR at all mate?

That's brilliant mate well done!

Good to hear that, thanks

Ok cheers, well done anyway, you've done really well to get through so quick; all the best for the MMI mate.
