Hi guys, Thought I'd better say hello. I joined the forum originally a while back as I was planning on moving back to the UK (I live in Denmark)and joining Strathclyde Police. Unfortunately though, changes to my family circumstances meant that moving back was out of the question, so I had to drop my plans. Instead, I'm training for military security duties with the Air Force reserves over here (lots of training scenarios, but not very exciting in real-life). Oh and for my civvy job I work for a brewery which shall remain nameless, but it's probably the best brewery in the World. Cheers T_T

Hi, I'm new to forum. I'm Andy, 28, currently a PC on Core Team in East London in the Met. Have been a PC for just over 7 years and have always been on Core Team bar a few attachments here and there. I am currently in the early stages of transferring up to Northumbria where my side of the family are from so fingers crossed that will all go through during the course of this year. Please feel free to drop me a PM if you can offer any help on the transfer front or work in Northumbria and feel you can give me some advice. Cheers Andy

I would like to say hello to everyone - I found this forum and now cant stop reading the posts - its great. I am from Middlesbrough and I got my letter back last week from Cleveland Police telling me I have passed my application. I am now waiting on the A/C dates. I am excited and scared at the same time. It took me ages to pluck the courage to apply, but I have a serious question I would like to put to you all - I am 46 years old, I am a very fit person and I really have got a lot to offer the Police Service even though I am this age - AM I TOO OLD??? in members opinions??? This is bugging me coz although I can take joking humour, does anyone really think I will be ribbe…

Hello everybody, My names is Robin I'm a french secondary school student. I'm sixteen. I would like to be a french policeman cause I'm really enthralled by police forces. If I registered here, it's to work my english and discover difference between french and English police. Excuse my English, I'm not very good in english at school. If I make mistakes, you can correct me, this will, probably, help me to advance in english. Robin.
