Yes - my friend's son gets paid his full wages each months, but she says it can take about six weeks for the first payment to be made. You might therefore need to negotiate a missed payment with your IP for the first month.

Good luck for Thursday - and let us know how you get on!

Hi, I was just speaking to my hubby about pay parades as he has just left the army after 23 years. He was saying that trainees still did pay parade when he was a Instructor at a training camp..but this was 9 years ago..so it may have changed.

God I remember doing pay parades when I was in the WRAC at Guildford. I wonder if it was the same pay Sgt that was there when you were Melanie because she too was a scary monster. Maybe that was part of the criteria to become a pay clerk[:D]

Not as scary as the PTIs who had hairy chests and they were not even men! I had a feeling that you guys were ex Army - the North Yorkshire address gives it away!!!
