Offer to go as a travelling reserve, and take pot luck.
At least you've now learnt an important lesson, don't book holiday unless you have a course booking confirmation.God is not on the side of the big battalions,

Dont worry, the 6 months training isn't in vain. Once you are a qualified PTI you will be expected to maintain that same level of fitness as you may be called upon by the school of PT at Aldershot to review your abilities as a PTI, including completion of the pertinent physical tests.
Regarding knowledge of course dates, there is a MOD on here that may be able to help but his name escapes me, have you tried the search function?"Remember that you are an Englishman, and have consequently won first prize in the lottery of life!" - Cecil Rhodes

what is a travelling reserve does it mean i wait for a phone call on the morning of the course or i go down there hoping a space comes available? On the holidays work insists we book holidays in october for the next year so i have to gamble on that one .

October that's a little harsh, can't you speak to them and explain the issue?
No the best thing to do is chat to them over the phone and see if they are happy to take travelling reserves, but you will need to go down and sit on the doorstep and hope someone jacks it.God is not on the side of the big battalions,
but on the side of those who shoot best.

Day 1 starts with a PFA, and believe it or not some have turned up and failed!

if someone fails are they prepared to put someone in their place or is that place then closed off?
