G-FORCE, considering your profile contains a direct link to your BAFPP blog, you should seriously reconsider some of the utter tosh you put on here (you can save it for your blog).
Anyway, asking for your record from the police is a good idea as it gives you a clear understanding of where you stand. There is an opportunity in the application to explain yourself and they, of course, will look into it themselves.
Good luck!
