Congrats, Kat - so when are you off???? :D

I should be getting mine tomorrow (I had the text message yesterday to say it was coming today, but I couldn't stay at home today, so they're delivering it tomorrow... with any luck) - I hope I'm as excited as you come tomorrow lunchtime!!

I leave either friday or thursday just planning it all now!!

That is great... you must be so excited!! (That and totally frantic, of course... but the *good* kind of totally frantic!) :)

Well... the checklist in Packet 3 does (if I remember right) have a space where you're meant to fill in the date you've arranged the medical for - I think you're only supposed to send it back once the medical's been booked (and all the documents collected etc). But then Packet 4 comes, with the interview date, and says that 'if by any chance you have not yet had/arranged your medical, you need to call the doctor... blah blah'. So... I suppose in theory he could claim to have booked the medical when he hasn't really, and then book it once he has his interview date (I wouldn't want to do it that way!) *or* he could call them when he gets Packet 3, book the medical for whenever (as late as possible, maybe, so there's a good chance of getting the interview date before the date he's booked the medical for)... and then, when he gets his interview date, he can call the doctors and rearrange the medical for the day before (or whenever).

When I called to book mine, it did seem like they were pretty flexible about which dates you could have - I called on a Monday and they offered me an appointment the next day (I didn't take it, 'cos I had to get my shots up to date first). The only thing is, they did mention that some days weren't available at all, not because they were fully booked, but because the doctor was on leave or whatever... so it may turn out that he can't get an appointment for the day before his interview. But I'm guessing that even if it ends up being 2 days before, or whatever, it'll be cheaper (and less hassle) than two trips down from Scotland!

Sorry for the rambly post, but hope that total over-explanation helps!
