    very few jobs around here, lots of redundancies. I can't work in Central London because of DS. I need to be able to get back to him if needed within an hour, and I am limited by his childcare arrangements.

    The ideal job for me would be between the hours of 10am and 3pm. Those are few and far between. although they exist! My friend has one!

    This recession is a nightmare. Officially we are in recovery but in real life we are all in recession. Scary stuff. Everyone is comparing it to 1981/2/3. I remember the 1992/3 recession when i left my degrees but this is far worse. Yuk. Just keep trying something will turn up vix, and be thankful you are not a sixth former now. The fees will be ridiculous. So sad.

    Yea, i'm lucky i don't have any debt as my parents paid. I did say i wanted to pay incase i dropped out or something but they wouldn't have it. Lucky Lucky!

    I just dunno how to get in anywhere, a lot of the jobs are higher positions that i have no experience of. I hardly ever see entry level stuff, or assistant new people sort of things. Its all managers and heading up a team of people :(

    Aesop has a beautiful little boy!! I want a boy if he looks that cute!

    can you afford to do work experience somewhere you want to work? is that worth a try? also even better try a temping agency in an airport or an area you fancy that is a good route in as usually they offer you a permanent contract.
