    Hi SS,

    Havent got any insight into how to train about excercise but just had a thought. If you become qualified in the sports/PT arena you could become one of those life coaches and sprout all that stuff from self-help books.

    I can see the show now. First you help them fight the debts with your years of experience from this site and then move into fighting the flab. Big money in it these days and you would be debt free in no time at all ;)

    Don't sell yourself short - you have the scars of hard-won experience. Unlike many "coaches" such as that awful Nicky Wimbleton-Tennis on "10 years Younger".

    Hi SS, that OU course is due to start in May 2008, and as a 60 point course you will be looking at about £595 (based on this years fees). HOWEVER, OU are generous with their funding, so you may qualify for funding. I don't know what your income is, but there is a ready reckoner on their site http://www3.open.ac.uk/courses/about/p6_1.shtml

    Hi SS

    Why do you want tostudy in this arena. Is an area you would like to work in, or is it just for personal interest?

    Do you know that you can also use your Tesco Clubcard Points to pay for an OU course.
