Choccie digestives might go down well. Fingers crossed for you that it all goes according to plan, the good news is you are in the system already as an SGC holder so the ice is already broken so to speak

No, not digestives!, it has to be chocolate Hobnobs smile2
Just be yourself, listen carefully to what he asks and just answer as best you can, most FEOs are perfectly OK and don't have two heads/breathe fire etc. :lol:

Just been told my my consultant that although they are happy for me to drive I'm not to ride a motorcycle until November at the earliest .... Looks like I'm job hunting !
Hope this doesn't affect my application (not that I can afford to buy anything now anyways !!!)

Not wanting to stir up any trouble...but what business is it of the Police to know you had a stroke?
(BTW: truly hope you make a full recovery and get back on two wheels soon - I had to give up my Z750 last year due to hypertension

)
As far as I know, a stroke isn't a mental health problem and doesn't need to be declared or discussed.

If you're
prone to strokes you could be a
liability on a range.
