Most excellent news. I have no personal advice as I won't be passed for a few months myself but congratulations on receiving the date, which is a little over two-weeks away!

I would say, relax and enjoy - pay particular attention to the Working Tools if your lodge does the extended version as it contains a very important lesson

Yes -- take your time. There is so much wisdom and valuable experience in this degree; don't miss out on it by progressing to MM too fast.
Congratulations! ;D

Shave your legs  Seriously, congrats on the upcoming date. I didn't like the Fellowcraft Degree at all so my advice is a bit biased. It's simply to enjoy the last days of being an EA while you can. For while you will travel a long ways from here, and make many news discoveries, you will never again have the perspective of an EA. Soak it up while you can.

That is excellent advice - no, not the shaving the legs part  I'm on about the enjoying your time as an EA.

Well, you only have one week to go and I bet you've been going over all those Q&As and getting very familiar with where everything is in Lodge, etc..., etc... ;d

...pay particular attention to the Working Tools if your lodge does the extended version as it contains a very important lesson I haven't heard of a version of the 2nd Degree Working Tools which is either extended or leaves something out. I'm wondering which version I would have recieved in my own Lodge?

I delivered the Second Degree WTs in my Lodge on Saturday. We use what would be the Extended Version in an UGLE Lodge.

It depends on what version of ritual your lodge uses Andy - Emulation uses the short version as standard. My lodge, which uses Oxford, uses the extended version as standard
