Handed in my dissertation today. Bit of a milestone. Treated myself to an iPad 4 as well. Quite nifty.

How can a student afford an iPad 4? :P

Well done anyway, weight off the mind?

I did 6th year as despite all unconditionals from universities I would have been going to uni 200+ miles away at 16 and a half, nae wise.

I loved it, cocked about and still got 4 CSYS passes somehow!

Sounds just like me although I had to lie and tell her I needed to resit maths and get a higher grade to qualify for the 5 year masters course. Thankfully I got it so no questions asked but obviously I had to put 'some' work into that. I do feel guilty now though.

Teachers of every other class must have hated me, especially in computing which was my only proper access to the internet at the time.

Got my skillstest for my joinery apprenticeship soon. If I pass I become a time served joiner. <br /><br />Confident about passing, but shitting it at the same time. Only downside is travelling to Arbroath for it.

Well today was the day, ended up getting lost and couldn't find the college, ended up outside gayfeild, then made it.

And I only gone and passed. Thank god for that.

In five years' time, when proper statistics are available on the damages to the country that have been caused by gambling, we're going to look back and say there should never have been as much advertising as there is.

Balaclava??? You ain't gonna rob a bank with that motor surely?

It's a Wendy House on wheels.

That's what I think also.

She has loved that car since it first came out in that colour around 2006. We even bought her a toy remote control model in the exact same colour that kept her amused.

When I saw it for sale last week it really was no contest as far as she was concerned.

Maybe not every bodies cup of tea but at least she has fulfilled a small dream and actually owns it as her first car.

I'd like to see a blanket ban on this kind of advertising. I don't think it needs to be encouraged and, above all, the adverts are all shit.

Agreed.

Every second advert now seems to be for either bookies or bingo websites.

We tend to have Nick Jr on most of the time so thankfully we don't see them during the day, though we get bombarded with PPI reclaim ads. Why kids want them on is a mystery to me. I'd ban them as well. That's by the by though. In the evenings, it's just constant. Betfair, Betfred, Paddy Power. All irritating as hell and offering you the chance to lose a load of money safe in the knowledge you'll be getting very little of their back. Arseholes.
