Thinking of moving back?

You can come over, pick up a cheap cut'n'shut and go do some illegal mini cabbing mate.

I'm not helping am i?

I'd say go see your local recruiting office about the asthma mate. You obviously have to be able to pass a certain level of fitness to get in and i'm sure they'd tell you more than any website can.

right the make you do a spiral test for you astma in a medical and by the sounds of it youd have no worries there, as a driver you would get posted to a unit and work on servicing trucks/ landrovers (basicaly richies job as he is only a FITTER NOT A MECHANIC which means he replaces parts but doesnt fix the broken bits ) na only joking its oils plugs and tyre pressures thats about it and drive stuff around anything from people to ammo, your unit could be anywhere uk or abroad genrally germany cyprus canada N.I but with the cutbacks this weather it would probably be uk.
it is a boring but ridiculasly easy job, its what i started as before specialising

I only want something boring and easy, aslong as it involves driving, the other thing in the RAF do you have to have a standard service time. I.e. could i leave after x ammount of years?

And it says all RAF jobs get 6 weeks holidays plus the 8 bank holidays, but in a normal week am i off 1 days a week or what? Doesn't really explain much about that on the site.

you don't join the forces to be a driver, unless you want to join the forces, and then be a driver, cos you may find you have to do other things as well, like fitness, spot of camping, maybe a bit of square bashing , guard duty, inspections, yes blow **** up, etc etc.
DON'T listen to anyones tales of how super duper it is, have you not seen the news lately, of course if this what you want to do then go for it , it's a right laugh, me 12 yrs scot's guards.
