Hello from Moray I just had my inspection from the CC this week too, it's not as bad as you fear it'll be is it lol My fireman was rather dishy ( he came out before the insp though) a bit of a George Clooney lookalike, in uniform, PPHWOAR! Did you have to spend loads on getting mains hard wired smoke alarms put in like me? GRRR esp with no blooming grant as well!

hi loum. no luckily for me i didn't have to pay a fortune for a sparky, my friend's hubby is one and done it for a tenner!! thankfully shetland is good for doing favours,not had a fireman at the house yet-probably as they are mostly all reservists,but if i do and he is gorgeous i'm sure it will be a nice wee perk!!

Things are moving nice & fast-Had a hunky fireman call me back this morning!-told me i just had to do a wee letter to him to say i had all my fire equipment in place and he'll approve it- i offered him to my house to have a look himself but he said he believes me! Bummer!!! Anyway, i told him i'd type one off and take it in today (sgetland post isn't great) so i might see a few hunks today-well it being guy fawkes they are more likely to be there-drool!!! wish me luck girls!! let you know what happens..

hi all! got back from the fire station ok. there was only 1 there and he was ok, too blonde for my liking but he was fit & can't be fussy...he said he will send a copy on to the care commission ASAP. gave him an extra copy of my letter to go to the care commission- (so no hold up!!) also just phoned the scma for my membership & insurance (lady at cc told me to go ahead and join, that she is approving me). hope everything goes through quick and i can start minding will keep u all posted! thanks for the support guys ;D weeteeny.xx

Thats good!
Scotland seems to be alot quicker to get us registered than down south, dont know why that is.
It took me 3 weeks and I was registered. Had most things done in the same week.
Hope you get some mindees soon

I've been waiting since April when my forms went in, my course was in January! SO no I don't think it's fast at all lol!! Glad you got back ok Weeteeny, did you get to slide down the firemans pole?? ;D I wasn't aware you could sort the scma out over the phone, I sent mine on the leaflet form, you watch the next hold up will be cos it gets lost in the post ARGH!! ( I am that kind of person, if I fell out of a tree I would hit every blooming branch on way down)
