Yes gidea Park Thanks. Good luck to you tooSame mate! You for Gidea Park aswell? Let the prepping commence! Good luck
Been advised my interview will be for gidea Park holding pool. Which is great for me.
I took a date in March that I already had booked off work. I just emailed recruitment to ask if it was going to be for gidea Park or old oak.How have you found this out mate? What date you booked in for?
Thanks so much for taking the time to replyNot so easy to answer, as how long training takes depends on what trainers are available, this includes getting past classroom based training. I'd suggest getting somewhere with multi gym access, where there's one close to Liverpool St and your home, that way won't matter too much
Also, for the last two weeks for example, we've been out everyday, with no where to leave your stuff at St Mary's Axe, and you already have a big rucksack to carry around all the time, would mean paying extra to hire a locker at the gym, but hey. . Lol. I'd say give it a while and get settled before you jump into a Liverpool St gym membership.Thanks so much for taking the time to reply
When you say you've been out everyday have you still been meeting at Liverpool Street and everyone goes from there onto next destination?Also, for the last two weeks for example, we've been out everyday, with no where to leave your stuff at St Mary's Axe, and you already have a big rucksack to carry around all the time, would mean paying extra to hire a locker at the gym, but hey. .

Generally yeah... Sometimes we go straight to Old Oak Common depot (Willesden Junction) tooWhen you say you've been out everyday have you still been meeting at Liverpool Street and everyone goes from there onto next destination?
Yeah, or North Acton tube station on the central line.Is that ultimately the closest Station (Willesden Junction) if going to the Old Oak depot by train?
How many people are in a group for training and do you stay with that group for your complete training?
I’ve got a DMI coming up next week for an ilford position (hopefully still Ilford depot).
Does anyone have any advice or tips that they would suggest that wouldn’t mind kindly sharing? Things they ask for? Etc?
I think the nerves are kicking in after getting this far and experiencing all the delays.
If you could pm me or share it here I’d be forever be grateful.

Anyone had a dmi recently and been successful, just seeing if anyones been given April 1st start date same as me? Not seen anyone of late mention a start date.
I got offered a place last week for the Abbey wood depot. Start date was meant to be June but pushed back to August as I have prior engagements. Just waiting on the medical but bloody hell I made it!
Congratulations on your start date would have loved to start next month.
