Well, the degree is mainly in OOP, and my job is infrastructure design, so it's not exactly a match anyway    Might have a chance to so a part-time mgmt. role as well in the New Year; we'll see about that.  Done it before in other companies I've worked for, so nothing new.

Congratulations on the degree Mike - quite an achievement.  David.

Congratulations Mike. I know how much work is involved. When I got my degree, you could only get a BA. I did want a BSc, especially as I did all science subjects.

Okay Malc, you win. Congratulations to Malc on getting your degree  . Seriously, congratulations to everybody who has put in the time and work required to get a degree. The best I ever got was 7 GCSE's.  I never took my education any further, so that explains why! . (I was a member of MENSA though  ). David.

I'm not sure if this should go in here or whether we should have a 'I can't believe that.....' thread, but anyway here goes:

Leicester City are joint top of the Premiership!!!.... and we should have beaten Man Utd on Saturday, they were there for the taking, weren't they @Graham Walters   

Oh and Jamie Vardy has broken the Premiership goal scoring record by scoring his 11th goal in successive games. I must admit I thought it would happen against Man Utd as he equalled the recored against Newcatle at St.James Park, just like Van Nistelrooy did and who did Van Nistelrooy play for...... Man Utd, so it was almost fate really.

I am under no illusions that come May Leicester will still be in the top 4, but whilst we are I'm going to milk it for all it's worth

Neal,

Slight typo in your post ...

I am under no illusions that come May January Leicester will still be in the top 4, but whilst we are I'm going to milk it for all it's worth     

Corrected that for you

Form is temporary.... Class is permanent.

Have been thinking for a while about getting a new phone and eventually decided on a make, model and retail outlet to get it from.

The price has been fluctuating and after it came down a bit last week I very nearly went into town on Friday to buy one.  Anyway I thought better of it and lets wait a bit longer.

By chance I looked online this morning and last weeks price had been reduced by 28%, yes over a quarter.  So now I've got a phone that'll run all the apps my old one wouldn't, has GPS and a much better camera.

Indecision can sometimes pay off

Just got my degree offer from the OU - BSc(Hons) in Computing & IT 

I might be able to get on with the layout now !!! 

Congratulations!!

I graduated from OU in 2003 after an 11-year slog through an Earth Sciences degree! Very hard work, and it made no difference whatever to my career, but I wouldn't have missed it. Came out with brain fade, a 2:1 and a new life partner!

Mind you it still took 10 years before railway modelling was a viable proposition again... ah well.

Cheers,

Chris

The wife's gone away for the weekend !

The layout has been set up in the living room since this morning.

No one is counting the number of "empties" in the dustbin.

[MikeDunn]

That just guarantees you she'll be back early ... 

[joe cassidy]

She won't - she's with her friend who's driving and is always late for everything.

I'm a free man until midnight tomorrow !

Best regards,


Joe
P.S. hope use of apostrophes is OK ?
