Oh glad to hear that Lucia! That's right , they've started to pay the kids to stay on now, haven't they....what is it 30 quid or so? My daughter just missed out on that, but she worked at weekends and after school too. Still does though she's at college now doing Highers Christine

Good evening Ladies, Once we get these youngsters off to bed we can sit and have a natter. Who's got the kettle on? I have a new box of assorted biscuits and a bag of Mars miniatures.

I could never understand why cross country was always done in the winter, and always when it was coldest ??? Many of my mates used to hide and tag along at the end, I like an idiot used to do the whole course, just to keep warm really, but I did like running, and did the AAA thingy at school. Pat x

Lucia, you're too bright to leave after fourth year! My two older ones said school is so much better once you get into 5th and 6th year, and just think....you don't HAVE to do PE then either. Don't leave...you'll regret it, I do! Christine

That would never have done me any good. A lot of the work was in my memory and I was good at revising for an exam. My course work was , shall we say sparse?!!

I remember what it was like to be 14. My dad decided that, as I hadn't picked up a School book during the Summer Holidays it wasn't worth sending me back to school so he got me a job. Next year I was due to take my O levels. I really wish now that I had got my Academic Qualifications. They would have earned me a lot more money than I have ever earned without. I have a good brain..I just don't have the documentation to prove it! Jim
