    My back is twinging.....went on the cross trainer at the gym this morning...don't think my body agrees with it...

    Spud...loving those subjects, I took Geography cos I loved physical geography and wanted to be a weather girl!

    Then a librarian...which I achieved and then I was 'forced' into accountancy - which I love.

    Thanks Sammy. I think she's happy. Now we need to keep our fingers crossed she gets her first choice subjects. They seem to suit her if you know what I mean :cool:

    Hope your back feels better soon xxxx

    Yes but Spud,

    Someone needs to be the trailblazer. When in 10 years time she's wanting to get somewhere it will be better to have the subjects that will do it than to have had a laugh with all her mates for 2 years and then be boxed in.

    Don't I sound old?

    It's just you do some subjects because your mates do them then in 10 years time you can't even remember who that mate was......well apart from my friend Sue who I used to eat yoghurts with at the back of the geology class!
