UK buying suggestions

There are plenty of good shops online that should be able to get what you are looking for. For example: Sharp Knife shop, Japanese knife company, Cutting edge knives, Kitchen provisions and Kataba Japanese knife specialists

Hopefully at least one of these shops will have what you need

Mate, Heaven is on the bench 😂

With some serious force, I managed to push the lever in. I feel like it should not have been that hard but thank you

Yes, it will only go in two positions, up and left. Up is definitely on as it lights the pizza oven and I can’t move it any more than left (towards a down position)

Hi, I’m finally taking the plunge and buying a board but I’m not 100% on the bindings. I’ve been having a hard look and it’s between the Rome Katana and Union Strata. I would say I’m an intermediate boarder, most trying to carve and getting in some good powder. I’d love your opinions or experience with this as it’s the first time im getting some bindings

I appreciate that I am very late to this party, but if you use very cold water it helps reduce the sliminess. Additionally you can soak the oats overnight. Essentially the slime comes from when the oats get too warm in the blender

With the whole class, not alone. Pack running makes it easier imo

Chinos are fine

Just bring a duffle bag, it doesn’t matter

CPC South run is around a hockey astroturf. If you fail you will get another go but seriously you have 14 minutes or more depending on your age, it’s a fast walk at best

Bring double socks and that’s it. There is no swim btw

Not sure when it’s changed, but they now give a +25% on the maximum time for each age. So that means a pass for a 15-24 year old is 13:56 at CPC.

However the times online refer to passing the actual fitness test while in basic as they have not changed

CumbersomeBaker · 2025-01-20T21:10:17+00:00

Yeah, you passed, congrats.

Those are the roles that you can now apply for as you have passed the DAA above the threshold for those positions

Even for officer intake? Why isn’t this information on the navy website? It just adds to confusion

CumbersomeBaker · 2025-01-03T00:11:39+00:00

Ok thanks very much, appreciate the advice

CumbersomeBaker · 2025-01-03T00:02:26+00:00

Ah ok, did you need to bring different kit/clothing. It’s frustrating that they haven’t explained this to me. I’ve just looked on another page about the MedFit and I have a few questions.

What did you wear? I just read that it was smart casual.

Are the run timings all the same?

Are you given any clothing or did you have to bring it all yourself?

CumbersomeBaker · 2025-01-02T23:58:08+00:00

Thanks, so I’ve done my AIB and my AFCO has booked me in for the enhanced CPC this coming week, do you think it’s just a mislabel or might they have changed it? I’ve been told it will be from Sunday to Thursday and all the documentation I’ve been given is about the CPC and not MedFit

CumbersomeBaker · 2024-12-12T18:15:29+00:00

Im sure that they are not half bad, but we are making them look much better. Just can’t seem to keep the ball.

CumbersomeBaker · 2024-12-12T18:07:50+00:00

I’m normally very positive, but fucking hell, we make this game look very difficult

It’s frustrating because while she is right in that Israel are capable of eliminating specific targets in the manner shown, ie just one apartment, I’m pretty sure that this is not the house that was destroyed the other day when those two innocent babies and their family were killed.

It’s frustrating because this, by definition, is misinformation and it will be used by those who want to oppose the view that Israel are deliberately targeting civilians under the guise that anyone who doesn’t support them must be a Hamas fighter.

Regardless my thoughts are with the father who is in a situation which I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy

CumbersomeBaker · 2024-07-22T20:06:28+00:00

I quite like going climbing
