There's nothing wrong with an afternoon nap (I'm just jealous as I have to work and can't have them)

Imagine putting me down as an admirer of yours - many moons ago you turned me down even though I offered a good lancashire hotpot and you were only interested in my (then) 18yr old g.dau. Ann

;.)p

It's not that kind of business! (not that kind either :-)

* throws my tangled tree in *.....do I get a free consultation....?

Ann? Admirer? Get away with ya! Only about 3 out of 9 esate agents even bothered to use the SAE I included in each letter to get back to me. Quite rude I thought. For the next 6 months I'll be writing local history books, setting myself up as a private researcher for Birkenhead Central Library and hopefully acting as a company director for a genealogy business my granddad will be funding in July. I have to do a business plan but he is interested in the idea.

You got another admirer Dan, Do Lemon and Bec know this....you.....................casanova............* hangs head and leaves thread *...

You know I wish you luck in whatever you do - last I heard of you were thinking of estate agent? Thought journalism etc would be more your forte. Ann

As I lost enthusiasm for it ages ago and have been coasting along. I was supposed to be doing 2 A levels but could see that wasn't going to happen, so I opted to do just the one the other week. Now I see that my coursework for that is substandard and I dont have the time or motivation to force myself to do so much by the end of this week. I'm not too bothered. I dont want a job in ICT and I've already got a GNVQ (higher that the standard school GCSE) anyway. I'm concentrating on my English exam to add the full A Level to my AS Level. Even so, my jobs for the near future are self employed anyway, wish I knew that before I took up the course 2 years ago

Shush Polly - wash your mouth out - he cannot be allowed to rest on his laurels - if he continues to work diligently who knows what he may achieve. I know college hours are crazy so I accept some of your reasons but young Daniel - if you have studied ICT for 2 yrs why not see it through? You may get another 'ology'. Ann

Ann, I think he has and will make his mark in life...He has already at his age wtiten some wonderful stuff and had it published.. He is capable of a lot in life..just bone-idle....

I haven't been for the past 3 days. 2 due to mistakes, 1 as I've given up on ICT. No point persuing that subject. When I do go in college isn't all day anyway, so it would appear I am back early not doing anything.

Aunt Polly - answer this one - why is not our Daniel at college and working hard (at least he does not appear to be at college much recently). Worried for the boy - these last exams are important. Ann

I'll midgie you again Foxy....I go off to do my crossword and come back to you having cross words with the boy....( sorry couldn't helpmyself there..) There , there dan.Aunt Polly is here.....I've still got codewords to do==========> out again....Stiff upper lip Dan, no quivering >..

What I want to know is - why in the past couple of weeks does it appear that you are at home rather than at college? Exams are coming up but as far as I am aware revision leave has not begun yet. Ann

That's what I meant. People keep casting aside my medical condition so now they have me saying I am lazy, other than the true issue here. It's discrimination really.

When I read that article Daniel - it was not that teenagers were lazy BUT that they required more sleep than everyone else. I know because I (naughty grandma) passed the info on to my two teenage g.children! Ann

Naughty Em!!

going for a hat trick Polly :)))

OOo--Em, you are in a feisty mood today.....!!!!
