    come over to my place and do the same here? :D

    Where are you applying to Sal?

    Is your road clear or still an ice rink :confused:
    Ive applied or shall I say Im applying for the access to higher education in Education at P & B. It seems a little silly really as I have a-levels and first year of a degree but yet its so long ago I need to do this with any chance of getting on teaching degree course :mad: Hey ho, will get me out the house and I might be able to pop in to you once a week :)
    I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

    Random question. I fancy dauphenoise (sp) potatoes tonight but haven't any cream. Is it possible?


    You could make potato boulanger like I made...slice potatoes (like crisps) and the same for onions, layer add a bit of thyme if you have any, pour pint of chicken or veg stock over and few bits of butter on top, shove in oven and then scoff the lot :) Very Very cheap delicious dish!

    rink :rolleyes: I want to venture out but my road is icy and the one I will turn onto doesn't get any sun so will be even worse.

    Have they definitely said you need the access course? Seems mad as you already have a levels.

    Yes - you can walk through the alleyway at the back of the college, I can whizz a mile down the road and we can meet at the pub opposite my old house at lunch!! :D
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    Ive got to go to weymouth tomorrow to take B for her swimming lesson...have a feeling I need to re-enrol her which I can't afford! Hope the roads aren't too icy :eek:

    I had a look at the entry requirements and my grades arn't good enough. Going to phone them on Monday but going to get on and apply for this course anyway as they told me it fills up quickly!

    Meeting at the pub sounds good :)
