GCSE RE was the easiest paper i've ever sat. The first question was a picture of 3 men, one was holding a cross, the other a quran and the other was wearing a turban and we had to say what religion they all belonged to...
That question still makes me laugh...

what if they just liked wearing turbans?!

You can really tell that Liz and I have finished our exams; nothing to do, much? Le sigh.

lol hes not a titled player, but at our mdest club he's considered the best (now and then GM aaron summerscale comes to our club, but he's not a regular)

I think our 'best player' is officially 200 bcf, so i should give him a good game because ive held my own against players with such grades (im BCF 154 - if any of this makes semnse to you!)

to answer your question, I think hes about 40!

Well, general studies was fun.

The first question was "assess the effect of the expansion and development of transport on social, cultural and scientific issues and developments in the UK" ...err, what?

The second one was alright though, something about scientific discoveries questioning people's belief in God.
