Yes, I think they have. For now anyway.

Well done mate.

Any exciting stuff this weekend? Or was it all work, work, work?


I know it's not the latter by the way

I did actually do some homework today. Chemistry... fun!

Yeah, and as the dad of a year 7 student, i believe that of course.
Mind you, he's a boy, you know how useless they are

I'm sure he'd love to hear what you say about him

Yeah, he normally joins in with a few things i've not thought of.

But i doubt if your studies have been affected by watching football all day, or planning your next visit to the nightclub. I don't actually know what girls do for fun to escape study. Is it still knitting?

You're older than I thought *cackles*

Well, I keep myself amused by reading/writing or coming on here and talking to strange people.

Oh, so now i'm strange AND ancient.....thanks for that

*Removes Ducky from the crimbo card list*

Reading and writing are admirable hobbies though, got to keep that mind keen eh? I remember you saying you got some excellent grades in the exams recently. Does this mean you will be off to Uni in the future to start your career as a famous literary character?

Nice *cackle* by the way

Thank you *bows* I've been practicing my cackle for a while now

I was only joking You're not that old!

Yes, I will be going on to Uni, after college

No really, i am that old Luckily i cope with it quite well now though, and it doesn't bother me much at all.

Well done on the plans for Uni, tis the way to go. My eldest is in his last year of college, but he's planning on a career straight from there. Too much football in his youth i think is to blame.
What would be the ideal subject for Ducky to study at Uni, and the career at the end? (Please note Cookies, , and CPU related studies do NOT count)

'Course they do! ALthough, if I find a university which provides a course like that it will be a miracle.

Geology would be a more sensible option...

Wahay Geology.

That's a really smart choice of course actually, because so few people take it anymore. My friends son went to Cambridge to study Geology, and now he's head of department in a University teaching it. Mind you, he travelled most of the world before he took the job. It's a great way to get free travel

As he always said "Geology rocks"

Hehe, yes, I love that fact that I might get to go travelling. If you go on to do A2 Geology at my college you get to go to Iceland *squeals and jumps about*

*Bad pun warning*

Iceland.........that'll be cool

My mates son went to New Zealand, Hawaii, California and the Pakistan/India border.......i think he was just doing Geology for the holiday destinations
I understand now why you were so interested in Edinburgh Rock when i went to Scotland last time

Keep studying hard........it beats working.

indeed it does! Ducky hope you're feeling better now!

As for Air - what would Mrs A say about you and Nicole

I think I am... although I don't want to tempt fate again.

good. so hows school?

Fine thanks, still getting told off by the teachers, still smoking behind the bike sheds, and..............

Hang on..........You're not asking me are you?

Ducky, i think this ones for you

Yeah, the same really Just kidding!

Uh, it's going well, especially now I've dropped Biology. I got top marks on a german essay and an A on my first little Chemistry test

well done!!!!

As for you Air - Shame on you! Hanging around with the bad crowd behind the bike shed

Wait til I tell Mrs A...or even worse - your children!
