    claire, I just altered it slightly so the back is a little longer; only 4cms but I think it looks better. THe back is done so I'm starting on the front.

    When I was little I wanted to be a solicitor or a paleontologist (I remember the Diplodocus and the Brontosaurus were my favourite dinosaurs)

    I'm sure there's a Uni that offers a course of that description.

    Sammy, that's EXACTLY what's happening with me with napster, I emailed them this morning so I'll see what they say.

    I know what you mean about the sexual health clinic, I went with sister to the connextions one a few months ago, I was the oldes there by well over a decade! We had fun whispering cruel things like 'why is that kid there, surely no girl will go with him'. And then trying to figure out what all the different forms of contraception were - there was a poster on the wall that said there's x number of them and it was stupidly high, we were five short by the time we left.

    Becky, I'm not sure I'd want to go to New York, I love medieval stuff and America's just too 'young'.

    Claire, I don't know what it's like now but I did A levels (as a mature student) about 8 years ago, and the norm was to do about 5 subjects at AS and then carry 3 on to full A level, so he doesn't have to specialise completely just yet.

    I've just been looking at the Hotel Chocolat brochure... nearly had an orgasm at one of the boxes, then a heart attack when I saw it's £80! For chocolate! I'd want it hand delivered by a handsome hunk who stayed the night for that much!
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    I wanted to be a writer. Then a barrister. Then an economist. Now I want to be a writer...

    I need chocolate. Grrrr pmt! :rotfl:

    Back on CD properly from tomorrow, CDC is hopefully coming on Monday so I only really have 4 full days to go, but I'm pretty sure I will have lost weight anyway this week having been ill for most of it.

    I didn't mind the HC chocolates but there was only one chocolate in the whole box that I thought was to die for - I think it was a blueberry truffle or something. Sooooo yummy.
