Ha, I have just had a look at the test that are on Bare. They struggle to shift these every time and now seem to have changed the rules on who can do them, you can't apply if your over 35....wonder how many they will be left with this time then

Ive actually just taken on of those bare tests, not done one (same location) for a couple of years, hopefully thats not a problem (have details on record)

Strange i would have guessed you were over 35, not for any reason just you get a mental picture of people and I had you down for 40s. No offence ment

I've always wondered whether they were worth the hassle. Quite a tight demograph though. Maybe I should get one done before I'm too old!

N.I.M

I've never understood why the constantly bombard people with emails for them mind. If after 20 general emails no one is picking it up maybe something needs to be changed? Never been able to do them mind. How are they as jobs to do?

I did quite a few of these until I did one where I was caught. Though they were really nice, they put a note on my record. I realized that if I want to do an exam in the future this might present me with a problem. I don't want a reputation as a cheat. So I decided not to do anymore.

I did a few last year and actually enjoyed them. It amazed me how easy it was to cheat though. Also I managed to actually pass one of the exams which was a million to one chance as it was on a subject that I had no idea about.

One of the first ones I did and again, it was very easy to cheat with a calculator in my pocket. Astonishing. I did have to laugh as when you do the fake-out 'oh, what can I do better next time?', I was given a breakdown of the topic areas I'd done wrong, one of which I have a Masters degree in... I managed to keep in character. Just.

Don't think I'd have the energy for another one.

I cannot thank Mimi1234 enough for his last alert! I snagged a visit. And I'm OK with the fact it's no fee. I'll pay tax on the reimbursement to the hotel where all the big stars stay when they play here.

Whoop! Whoop!
