Stupid Scottish Qualifications Authority :mad:

. I literally just need this stupid number to put into the UCAS application and then send it... but I don't know it and a year of general educational disregards mean that I've 'misplaced' my exam results sheet. I might have to... *gulp*... contact my old school. *dread*

What are you doing at the moment? Cuz if you're at college they should have it surely?

I'm on a gap year. Well, technically. I started University and left. I made the horrifying mistake of thinking that taking Latin as a 3rd choice was a good idea when I had no prior experience with it. Then the extra mistake of deluding myself that I could cope with it for too long and not switching classes after the first week (which I should have done).

Sob sob.

Oh well, the year out is a very good plan anyway. It really would help to have a little more cash next time round.

Just because I drink the monk's finest and tuck my tracksuit bottoms into my socks does NOT make me a Ned. :mad:

Meh. Joke. No, I'm not a Ned. Why?

Wish i'd have taken a gap year once i failed my BTEC rather than going straight back in to do A levels... I lost my job after the summer when I went full time, now i'm just running up excessive debt. I do however, want to get to University as quick as possible, cuz even at this rate i'm gonna be 21 before the end of my first term of uni :frown:

Don't wanna go any later than that tbh

Because when I said 'lost' I actually meant that I rolled them up and used them to smoke crack. Obviously!

The Ned is the Scottish variety of Chav. Pretty much the finest examples of Chavism to be found anywhere in the UK if you ask me. Possible competition from Scousers.

I see it now. I said "Aww man" in the title. Ned-like. But the emphasis was on a drawn out "maaaaaaan"... if spoken. I can see where the confusion came from.

No offence taken. I know a few semi-neds who are quite decent people. Not street neds... Boy-racer Neds. The Buckfast and Trance music are what make them Neds. No tracksuits though. A horrifying amount of 'bling' yes. And lots of Peugeot 306's + Vauxhall Corsas with huge exhausts.

I know quite a few boy racer types that are alright people... i think it pisses them off when a semi-punk in a relatively unmodified astra beats them on the drag strip though B)

I was kicked out of a "suped-up" Peugot in the middle of nowhere for asking "How exactly is it a good thing to have a huge £1000 stereo system... and then have your car so ridiculously overpowered that it drowns out the music?

Going in that car makes my whole body feel numb because of the vibrations.

Lol, my sound system in my astra is ok, but i havent really done any performance mods.. I spent quite a lot of money customising the engine on my escort, then lost it all when I got a blowout and went into a ditch....

Turning the car in the first one, into the mess that is the other two.
