Country: | A-Levels and the sixth form are much better than any schooling before it.
The best thing about it is that the majority of people suddenly reach an age when they want to develop their own identities, and not just follow the crowd. |

Country: | Erm - you only need three! Even Oxford and Cambridge only want three A-Levels. (admittedly it's gotta be AAA, and get through the interview) Still, I think people who take more than three are just taking a pointless risk. |

Country: | Send my regards to your boy Les and wish him well for the future from me please.
The only time I've ever been inside a college was to see my missus receive her degree it was quite a proud day for me I can tell you.
She worked bloody hard for 3 years while doing a full time Nurses job.

Country: | Good on her Fly give her my best wish. My wiife started off in theater as a scrub nurse she has worked in general practice for the last 20 years and is now a Nurse Practioner. She's got a much better head on her shoulders than me.

Country: | I have a tremendous amount of respect for nurses. They have some crazy hours and I am sure that there are folks that aren't exactly model patients.
