    maybe sad seeing as im only 18 but its just a change and a cheap little get away. Hotels for a night then move on.

    Spud-we are having the same probs with DS and his options.Being car mad,he is adamant he wants to do Motor Maintainence....which seriously cuts down on his choices of traditional subjects...grrr...
    I would like him to do the core subjects,along with additional triple science, geography,history and 1 other....but he can't see past "having a laugh with his mates,fixing cars"...his words...
    Debt-free...and staying that way...
