    Hooray for Sunderland. I have been reading about the naughty footballer who had an affair and then wanted it kept out of the press as he had a family to protect. Even i know his name. Gosh. So glad i am not in his family. I would put chilli in his pants.

    Didn't think of his family before this did he?????? anyway, you have the chilli now, don't you ;);)
    can someone shout at me and make me mark? i have 20 assignments to do. i dont want to do them.

    Try doing 5 of them and then see how you feel petal - the longer you leave them, the harder it is to do them ........ you know it makes sense ;)

    Having an HND does not prove I have IT qualifications. And although I am very competent in excel, I cannot prove it, which is why I am doing ECDL. these days everyone wants a piece of paper saying you can do this, that and the other.

    In my job I am asking people for their english and maths certs, and if they can't provide them they have to do the numeracy and literacy tests I am taking. but the ones at work are dead easy compared to the learn direct ones!

    If someone asked me to do a literacy test i would sock them hard. Actually really, really hard. I have noticed though that the quality of my grammar is slipping on MSE. It feels strangely liberating to not have to use capital letters for proper nouns and at the beginning of sentences. My schoolteacher's would be so upset. I had to go back and correct myself on Bob's thread last night as i posted things without thinking and as usual had many errors. Whoops! must be good.

    57131happy_birthday_new.jpg is this me? I am so naughty. I do love cake. I have been good today. I am going to eat healthy food and no crisps, chips or chocs. I will be thin again.

    The dog represents this thread ;);) and everyone on it ;);) but we can be good, if we try very very hard :j :j star-jumps Kit star-jumps or, of course, the dreaded trampoline jumping0046.gif

    rofl at Kit!

    Kit, the literarcy test was not a huge surprise. I did well in the bits I know I am good at, poor in bits I knew I struggled with at school and one part I would like to argue their answers are subjective, but who cares?

    it's a piece of paper that keeps them happy.

    As you say though, they all want that magic piece of paper these days ;)

    I deleted as it was a bit rude. I must do some marking for a bit back in half an hour.
