I'm still on Easter break:tongue:


Development days or something, I don't know, but the government must have some internal parameters for the break :tongue: It's a Monday morning is all I'm saying.

No this is the first day of my second week. Local government determines the holidays I think:redface:

That makes sense. Nuffield manages the research placements by region, though, so again, I'm hoping the end of the Easter break (in my region) means I'll get something soon :tongue:

Haha good luck with it, I might be getting some work exp with Aston Martin but tbh I'll probably be coffee boy with a tiny bit of actual engineering. I don't have much in terms of extra-curricular things so I do need some work exp.

Yeah, I'd be concerned about being treated in the way so many unpaid interns complain about, when finding work experience independently. Nuffield sort of ensures that I'm doing actual science :biggrin: Aston Martin would be cool though (what engineering could you realistically do?).

I'm not too sure as of yet because I've only just inquired about it. I probably should have applied for Nuffield but oh well:rolleyes:

Physics is just annoying me right now

Are you not interested in engineering? I said you could get into lotus because that's based near us

Oh it's an organisation. I'm a physics guy, but engineering is basically physics for less smart people (I kid :tongue:), and Norfolk isn't exactly a priceless gem among the physics world.

(just looked them up, car company, which suggests to me you thought I was saying Aston Martin would be cool for me; I was talking about Red Fox's prospective work experience :lol:)

It was just quantum

How do you live in norfolk and not know what lotus is?
I agree with the eng comment

I think I've cracked it now, just keep at it, once you've done a fair few pp they're all the same thing

NikolaT. You were nice to me then, what happened?:mmm:


Did you know I always stalk this thread and therefore didn't need to quote me? :wink:

And I've already explained that before.

I live in Norfolk. I don't particularly care that I live in Norfolk :tongue: But I have heard of Lotus (first heard of it a couple of months ago, discussing Nuffield as it happens, completely forgot about it).
