    Qualifications

    You lads have earned from your school days .

    For me I went to St Peters RC School they wanted high pass rates back in the day
    So they'd only let you sit an O'level if they'd thought you'd pass .

    Zero qualifications for me then.

    What about you lads have you any .

    5 2's and 2 3's

    Now I'm a beach bum in Spain.

    Just goes to show, if you work hard anyone can be a idle lay about.

    EDIT: Got my cycle proficiency to, even with a warning for over taking.

    Benidorm at the minute. I'm in the campervan and a few friends came over to a hotel for new year.

    Flying back for a few days on Sunday as I have a hospital appointment then I'll be back over here to head south.

    I have booked a week back home to take in the hibs away and huns at home games though. Flights are so cheap I thought I'd get a few games in.

    I left Powis School at 15 so no formal qualifications I did go on to do a HNC in Social Care at RGU. I was what they called a mature student the only one not to be eating chip 'n Cheese for my dinner at the RGU café.

    Six 2s (PE, French, Graphic Com, Maths, English, Art)

    Two 3s (Biology and Modern Studies)

    I didnt apply myself at school. Could have done better if i gave a sh@te. It wasnt untill i left i realised i needed to get stuck in a bit more. Grafted at college as an apprentice. Grafted with putting myself through courses. Everything career wise has been through my own hard work and not one funny hand shake involved.

    I also have an unquenchable thirst for knowledge these days. Football, the World Wars, Other cultures. I definatley enjoy learning more now

    But back to school, if id applied myself and went further i wouldnt have got into rotating equipment. Then i wouldnt be where i am today. Too be honest im glad i didnt give a f@ck about school because i very happy with where i am in life in general at 35.i would have been in a different position now

    Also i have never been to france since leaving school so that was a waste of time

    Poor honours degree from a poor university doing to me no help in my useless 'career' thus far. Just got rejected at an interview in my latest seemingly futile attempt to escape my dead end job yesterday.

    Super glad this thread has been started...

    What degree did you do standfree I would say getting to uni is an achievement on its own.
