    They're all quite similar. No Robin or Artem-types.

    I read your post as the man from Bargain Hunt was on screen. I'm definitely immune to him.

    So, I manage to get my washing done uncharacteristically early (dry clean-only dress and all). But I still need to have a shower and wash my hair. Was in the garden all afternoon, managed to come inside for 7:30 - then had dinner, and thought I'd watch Strictly. I'll probably be wearing dry clothes on a Monday morning for a change, but with wet hair!

    Edit: I often go into work with wet hair because I very very rarely use a hair drier. But it's not normally wet from washing it the previous night.

    And a single persons day where we can be told how special we are, and get taken out for dinner.

    Aw if I could afford to take you out for dinner I would :p

    Lilia Kopylova was my favourite, I'm sad she hasn't be on it for a while. The last girl I went out with was called Lilia, but she hated being being called that, it was just Lili; which I could never get my head round because I associated the name with Lilia Kopylova :D

    Well done :T

    What's the particular route you've taken to get Assoc. CIPD? The qualification I'm doing also leads to it, but doesn't have a dissertation (I don't think!).

    I have to be honest, I don't fully understand it properly myself. We've all complained!

    I've done a masters degree in HRM, and then we did a CIPD course on top of it. So the idea is the Masters covers most of the stuff we need for the level 7 CIPD, but we have the extra sessions to plug the gaps. The dissertation is just for the masters.

    All I know for sure is that I end up with associate membership at the end.

    I was just going to do CIPD courses, but then thought since I hated my job and I'd end up doing a masters at some point anyway, I may as well do both at the same time.

    Ah, I see - thanks for the explanation. Definite congrats - my course is only a Level 3 course! :T

    At least, with that qualification, you should hopefully be able to use the experiential assessment route after a couple of years to upgrade your membership without further exams etc.

    All the best for the job hunting.

    Happy belated Fathers Day gen.

    I suggest you try to teach the kids better traditional swearwords.
    If the filter here doesn't censor them teach them - I'd recommend
    Marry! I'faith! 'Sblood! 'Sbody! 'sheart! Egad! Try John Barth's The Sot-Weed Factor if you need more.

    Tell them they're proper British swearwords and they're the only ones they should use. It's the apostrophe at the start that makes them especially bad. :eek:
