Thanks everyone.I'm doing an MA in education. Nearly finished and only my dissertation to go. It's a long winded pain the !!!. But that's down to my uni, they are very badly organised. Boo. That said its not really eaten into my day to day time. I've just done it in the holidays because its easier.
