    Bunny - hello back at ya hunny!

    DB - I was scrolling qucker and quicker through the pages to get to your result! I would also pop along to your GP to have a chat.

    Luc - no, I've not committed to the shooting yet. I can go along any Mon or Fri after 8 to have a looky-see. However, I've decided to see how my teaching (or not) pans out over the next 2 terms. Currently I'm committed to a Tuesday night teaching in the Autumn term and then Monday and Tuesday night the next term (Jan - March.)

    However, I am 3 learners short on my Tuesday class. If 3 more learners don't enrol in the next fortnight, the Tuesday class will be cancelled. That means though that I can do the next stage of my teaching qual. as that's going to be run on a Tuesday night for the next 2 terms.

    I don't want to end up in the middle of January working 18.5 hrs in the office, the rest of the week and all weekend on AQA, Monday AND Tuesday night teaching (or studying) AND be a member of a gun club! It would be just too much for me.

    I'm going to see how it pans out over the next couple of weeks - if I end up doing studying rather than teaching, there's the essays/assignments aspect of it all to also factor into my quickly depleting week.

    But I want to go :(

    definately/definitely - that is one of the words i always spell wrongly.....! it's not a typo, unusually for me, but a real bona-fide spelling mistake....

    I also got my £25 gift voucher for being star AQA'er today (brown nose, me?!) and it can exchanged for loads of places. I'm going to take a bit and decide whether to use it for a couple of gifts to put away or splurge it on myself.

    BB - going along once to see if you enjoy it isn't making a lifelong commitment. If you go once and like it would it be possible to make it an ad hoc thing where you go if you have time rather than turn up every week like clockwork. I think it would be invaluable as a stress buster for study/work stresses...

    On the other hand, you might try it find you don't like it or that particular club for whatever reason and not go again but at least you'll have tried...

    Lecture over:D

    Yep, what Luc said ^^^^^ BB ;)
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

  • Ditto that!

    Ditto again!

    And Maz, being a wordy geek, the way I remember is that it's related to finite so it's definitely with an i!

    I'll get my coat ...

    I can't believe I made the sum thing work!

    Of course I now have to find a ridiculous amount of money in order to be debt free by December 09. But hey I am nothing if not up for a challenge!!!!
