Well done on both counts sir (well, ma'am)

Well done wee quinnie!

I really admire anyone who has the discipline to complete a distance learning course, particularly so sucessfully, it's a huge achievement.

The biggest achievement of all is that you have been working form home on your OU course for all this time and only reached 500 posts. That is truely remarkable!

[Keef]

Bravo WQ.

[citizenED]

Well done, lass.

[CamberwellOz]

Me! I'm going to have another baby. Two in 20 months. I must be crazy.

[mockney piers]

Cripes, congratulations.

I got three A*s today, huzzah.

Off to Neasden Poly (Formerly World of Carpets) I go :D

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Well done WQ and MP. It's a hard slog to study as an adult with all one's other commitments.

CO - congratulations.

[mockney piers]

shhhhh....I was joking

[Moos]

Well done Wee Quinnie - congratulations on so many years of hard work rewarded.

Congratulations, CambyOz on many years of hard work to come ;-) and all the joy of a new baby. I do hope your next experience at King's is a happier one!

Mockers, you are a bad monkey.

[CamberwellOz]

Thanks for that. I'm going to have a home birth this time round.

Now.... did someone say they had cake?

[Keef]

Congratulations CamberwellOz, hope all goes smoothly and healthily (is that a word?) for you! :))

Don't you believe it, that's the easy bit.

The hardest bit is relentlessly doing the dull grind for the rest of your natural life, in some cause you do not necessarily believe in.

Someone with a double first will no doubt grasp that fact more quickly than the rest of us who never had the where-with-all to obtain such an enviable qualification.

I admired your wit and intelligence long ago, and never expected anything less. Well done Asset.

SteveT - doesn't that depend on what you do for a living?

I didn't expect to enjoy my job as much as I do - it's turned a lover of lazing around chatting rubbish to my mates all day, into a workaholic within a few months!

The adrenaline buzz from getting emergency injunctions 2 hours before a client is due to be deported and the lows when you fight like a lion but still lose a case are totally addictive and suit my bipolar, obsessive personality to a T!!

Plus the buzz you get when new House of Lords cases mean you can win the appeal is great. I love the House of Lords Judges and the Court of Appeal are pretty cool too - they save our bacon on more than a few occasions.

Never do a job you don't like - unless you really have no choice because you couldn't eat or something. Life is too short to spend most of it waiting for the bits of time you get off from your job.

A big huge congrats to Jaws who after studying and working really hard towards a career change in to the financial sector she has finally done it!

Youve made me so proud!

[david_carnell]

Nice one Jaws/Nic.

So what, prey tell, are you doing in the world of finance. Answer with care; some people on here will spit at the mere sniff of a hedge fund!

Congrats. :)-D

[citizenED]

Congrats to Jaws. Always uplifting to achieve something.

CamberwellOz - congratulations on no.2. We did a home birth for No.2 after having the first in St. Thomas'. Good experience. Hope yours is too.
