New Member Introductions

Hi everyone, I am new to this board. It is my aim to apply and get into the police in the next few years, once I've got a little more experience. In my spare time, I do websites (PHP/MySQL and HTML) and try to keep fit. Thanks :)

Hey people, Nice community forum you have going here. Been reading through the forums and found a lot of it very useful to me so thought i'd join up. Just a bit of background info on myself - I live in London and I graduated from university with a degree in computer science in the summer. Although well before leaving I had worked at numerous offices in the City getting experience & pretty glad I did. It made me realise that office work just wasn't for me.

I left a life of recruitment after changing employer and finding myself not enjoying what I have been doing for the last handful of years. I have been out on a shift shadow with a couple of the local stations and still did not deter me. I have put my name in for Hampshire Police's recruitment evening/s and am now suffering with cramp in my fingers as they have been crossed since I sent the email!!!! Cheers

Hi to all, Thought I'd say hi, which I just have, twice, and introduce myself I'm a Rhyming Rat as the title suggests, a serving traffic officer with a penchant for parodies and poetry so I write loads for friends and in the end got my act together and stuck them on a website...
