Aldershot

[Annieec]

Hi,

My bf of nearly 5yrs is joining the Navy in April and after Basic Training he will be based in Aldershot for at least 10 months. I wish to move there and am wondering if anyone here has or knows of anyone who has a room spare that I could rent? It needs to be a double room and I need to be able to have him back at weekends.

Thanks in advance for your help.

No need to shout me duck! This situation has undoubtedly cropped up before at the Joint Services Medical School (or whatever they call it this week). Find out how to contact the OIC (Google RN Medical Training) and ask them if they can give you any advice. They'll be glad to help.

annie, Aldershot is a very Army orientated town, not somewhere that matelots or bootie frequent very often.

You might get more joy over on Arrse...I wouldn't shout about the navy bit though, just say he's going there for a course....keep it simple stupid.

good luck.

I don't know where you are living at present but please be advised that the Aldershot area is expensive for rented accommodation. A double room will probably cost you at least £100 a week to rent.
It may be cheaper for him to travel back to see you for weekends.
If you were considering working in the area there is plenty of work available, however much of it pays only the minimum wage (about £5.50 hour).

Not much luck with Google, but you need Defence Medical Services Training Centre, Keogh Barracks, Aldershot. The advice to try ARRSE is good. You will probably find Army students on that forum.

Good point Dunkers, if Part II trainees are entitled to MQs.

Are married quarters allocated to those living together?
