Oh and when you shake hands make it a nice strong firm handshake, gives a instant impression of yourself that you are standing tall in stature and you are a confident person, rather than a shrinking violet and a bag of nerves.

In newcastle its not as long, because if you already live there you are used to abuse, violence, and crime on a daily basis, thus you are already hard and dont need much training.

5 weeks training, 6 month probation. Probably different up north but round here its 12 - 16 weeks training, then on prob. for 1 - 2 years

Im sure there are a few coppers on the site, would be interesting to know if it varies from place to place!

Edit - this is ours
