Thank you! I must be an absolute fool but when I go on to the SFE website it only gives me access to applying for entry for last year entry. Would you awfully be able to post me a link?

Doesn't look like they're currently open. They did say the end of this month, I do believe.

The only place I've seen a specific opening date is a Uni of Lincoln official blog, which quoted 29th Feb.

Keep watching the SFE website - it should be open sometime in the next couple of weeks.

Blimey - thanks for the info.

That's the latest I can remember it opening since I first started tangling with SF in 2008. It was the end of January last year. Wouldn't like to be a member of their staff - it's going to be a torrid few months for them :/
