Same 13, were you told that you would get a call from the division we are working in? If yes, have you received that call?

See you there! I'm sure they won't mind how long you stay for - the lady I spoke to on the phone seemed to present the internship as being quite flexible.

Yeah it seemed like it would be pretty flexible. I'm hoping that everyone doing it will get a chance to work together/socialise seen as I'll be living on my own and have literally nothing to do on the weekends.

I'm sure we will be able to sort something out, if we are going to spend the majority of our summer there I see no point in not trying to have a good time.

Got an email explaining what the division I'm working in do ages ago..
Also got a call yesterday saying that they can't confirm my start date as the 25th yet due to FCO not having granted my clearance yet.


I've been told my starting date is the 25th and that they'd send me more information closer to the time.
