    Owain Glyndwr replied to Belinda-wales's topic in International Nursing

    Why do us men always get the blame for everything! Happy wedding anniversary for yesterday. Things are that fraught at Glyndwr Mansions due to the immigration process, we have to communicate via a...

    Owain Glyndwr replied to english_nurse's topic in International Nursing

    Owain Glyndwr replied to Silverdragon102's topic in United Kingdom

    Here goes....although it does depend on how good your company is, how long paperwork sits on their desks before it goes elsewhere, and how long it takes to get from you to London to USA: Signed up...

  8. I Want to take a group to UK to visit Nursing Program

    Owain Glyndwr replied to bsweilrn's topic in International Nursing

    To cut travel costs, you'd probably be better off looking for a University near where you are going to get off the plane i.e. Thames Valley for Heathrow (http://www.tvu.ac.uk/index.jsp), Croydon area...

  10. money, money, money. always funny.......

    Owain Glyndwr replied to janejoeben's topic in International Nursing

    They're impossible to shift on e-bay, even without a reserve. I've even offered free p&p. Oh for a return to the Victorian Britain of coal mines, mills and chimneys. At least there'd be some...

  13. Packet 3

    Owain Glyndwr posted a topic in International Nursing

    Just received mine after I140 clearance 5 months ago :angryfire Has anyone past or present, been told to send their Police Check cert off with Packet 3? It's not what the NVC state - usually get it...

  14. NCLEX - A good idea?

    Owain Glyndwr replied to semtex's topic in International Nursing

  15. OGP nurse salary

    Owain Glyndwr replied to d4e5f6's topic in International Nursing

    I tried to play the experienced card, but my recruitment company and Banner were having none of it. Told me I was to be treated as a new grad ('that's what the hospitals want') and I had to accept the...

  16. Packet 4

    Owain Glyndwr replied to apriljan's topic in United Kingdom

    Like English Nurse, we have always stated that a pool is a must have. Any idea of the costs of heating/maintaining an average (non-Olympic!) size pool? And what's the best deal on Internet/Phone/Cell...

  17. Colourblind

    Owain Glyndwr replied to medic999's topic in International Nursing

    Or, on second thoughts, maybe they're on MSN.

  18. Colourblind

    Owain Glyndwr replied to medic999's topic in International Nursing

    That's no attitude to have is it? Tsk Tsk. Go on pick up the phone. Before your time, there was Maureen Lipman as an extremely annoying Beattie encouraging everyone to use the phone and more lately...

  19. Colourblind

    Owain Glyndwr replied to medic999's topic in International Nursing

    Now, that's not like the NMC to sit on the fence is it? Usual 'don't involve us' attitude - let everyone else make the decisions. At least they consistantly do it. Had similar issues with positive...

  20. Packet 3

    Owain Glyndwr replied to Owain Glyndwr's topic in International Nursing

    yes, that's what i've said on the last page! you get the police check done (along with immunisation history etc) before the interview - not to send with the ds230, but to take with you to the embassy....

  21. Packet 3

    Owain Glyndwr replied to Owain Glyndwr's topic in International Nursing

    my understanding of the process is that packet 3 gives you notification of the requirement to get things sorted now for the embassy interview in a month/two months/three months etc. gives you enough...

  22. Packet 3

    Owain Glyndwr replied to Owain Glyndwr's topic in International Nursing

    [evil]now i'm really cross[/evil] just rang the nvc who have, surprise, surprise, told me, as i bloody knew, that all you need to send is the ds230 and copies of passports. telephone calls have been...

  23. Packet 3

    Owain Glyndwr replied to Owain Glyndwr's topic in International Nursing

    Thanks for everyone'e help and advice on this so far. I don't think things have changed - my processor in the recruitment company has made an error in his understanding of things (yet another thing...
