I started applying in Aug 2015 and have applied for 11 positions in all. Still waiting for a start date but I'll be joining you out there at some point. Just hoping that I'm suited to the job and that it suits me, the hours certainly do. While I'm waiting I'm trying to learn about the job and improve my walking fitness.
I enjoy the forum and hearing how things are in your area, good and bad.
Cheers everyone
