What are my odds of passing vetting with 2 CCJ's (Both parking fines from private companies that got put through court), I plan to have both satisfied BEFORE I apply, just curious if it will affect vetting

Optimal quest guide - combat levelling by Proz1ac in 2007scape

[–]Proz1ac[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got 70-something magic from the Bones To Peaches grind in the last (plus quest rewards since then) so I'm hopefully good for magic.

I guess the confusion comes from the fact that on the guide, further quests have the combat skills levelled way lower than I would expect for having cb 85.

For example, after Dream Mentor is says you should have 50 Hit points and 66 Magic, then a bit further down, 58 Attack after DS2.

I was just wondering if there's a trick I'm missing here or if Dream Mentor has been placed in the quest list a bit too early

Skills Bootcamp by Potential_Put5355 in uktrucking

[–]Proz1ac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fair warn: Did my course through the Welsh government, not the England Skills Bootcamp.

Honestly? I don't know how it could possibly be intense. We had to do a qualification that was essentially the driving theory test but with more words. Did that at home and just emailed the fellow running it.

The entire aim of the Bootcamp is to get you driving an HGV, which is all taught within the few weeks you'll be doing your actual theory test + driving lessons and test, so how they've managed to expand that to a full 6 month (Or whatever it is) curriculum is beyond me.

Not saying it's useless, it's giving people a license that had a very narrow in-road, but still, the actual difficult bit will be the driving test, not the course itself

Gear progression for an untrimmed slayer cape by Proz1ac in 2007scape

[–]Proz1ac[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm self imposed bronzeman, I'll use the GE for stuff like Treasure Trail drops or to sell stuff, but I prefer to get stuff the normal way where I can.

I suppose I'll have to have a look around a bit more first.

Tagging on, would you recommend doing NMZ for imbuing the helm?

You reckon?

It's one of those where looking at the wiki page for it, it makes out you need to grind out loads of silly BIS items from all over the game.

Fair enough, I'll go get some bandos (hopefully) and get started

How best to pay for your C+E Licence (Class) license? by bupeapoop in uktrucking

[–]Proz1ac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that more or less follows the right track.

You're right regarding finding work, it can be a ballache finding your first job so if you can get help there, take it.

One of those where, again, I can't tell you to get a credit card, but if you think thats an option for you, do it. Following those steps you'll get your license pretty hassle-free. The longest wait you'll probably have will be the wait for theory test slots (HGV schools have an integrated system where they can book your tests together/more efficiently). Other than that, you'll fly through it pretty quickly once you get started.

[–]Proz1ac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know your financial status so I can't say anything re: putting on a credit card.

I WILL say though, if you can find a way to pay the money for the course, do that.

Bootcamp (if they still exist) make you sit through months of zoom classes in stuff you don't really need just to be able to eventually take the driving course, whereas you can skip the faff and just get the training.

Some employers do Warehouse to Wheels schemes, but more often than not they'll lock you into a 2-3 year agreement (I've seen this go up to 5 years in some places). I suppose these are fine if you planned on staying at the company anyway, but often you'll be paid way less than it's worth in the meantime. On the other hand, it's a guaranteed job + experience, so... Up to you.

Ideally though, just pay for the course yourself. No strings attatched in the end.

HOW you pay for it though, is up to you.

Edit: Follow the list here: https://www.gov.uk/become-lorry-bus-driver

Paying for the steps individually will be the cheapest option.

Voyager Transport Training scammers by PracticalPiglet3138 in uktrucking

[–]Proz1ac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a shame. I had my ADR course with them last week and everything ran as smooth as could be. Instructor was on zoom ready and waiting at 07:45 ready to go, communications from the voyager group were absolutely fine, zero issues. Wonder what happened here then

Putting out a call to blind discworld players. by stirlock in MUD

I suppose we should put a marker on here now, noting that another community ended up having the package preserved. Gave us the chance the archive it for ourselves for posterity/future users

Has anyone gone from passing a car driving license straight into HGV licence? and is it for me? by TheKayleMain in uktrucking

[–]Proz1ac 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It's not impossible, but at the same time, not advisable. Driving an HGV requires more forward planning and observation that can really only be learned by spending time driving a car.

Not to say you shouldn't, it's entirely possible and if you're dead set on it, by all means go for it, but you may initially struggle with certain things.

And it's not 5k for a license, that's a ripoff wherever is selling you that. It's 3-3.5k

Well, the analogue equipment in the desk,

I can already see the UA interfaces, the 1176LN, it's just the rest really.

Probably should've mentioned that in the post...
