bless....the foolishness of youth

You are about as 'cool' as my scrotum

Are you sure it wasn't your sister ???

Exactly. Like when I was in Laos last Summer i got chatting to an English girl on the bus and it turns out she was in my year at primary school (there were only 30 of us in the class). Or in Australia when I bumped into another person from my year at Cardinal Newman in a nightclub in Surfers...

I'm not sure what the deal is with Deloitte- im guessing they have filled their places but are expecting people to decline the offer and then they will turn to cart horses like me. yeah actually the EY process isnt too bad- at least there was no presentation to do, and their aptitude tests were...

Have prepared the presentation on San Leon- an oil and gas company in its exploration phase. Huge potential upside and growth. Also pioneering shale technology too so lots to talk about. I bought shares in them last month so know the company well, too. god if i ever trot down to the bank with...

The EY job is in the Reading office as the London one was full. Hence me trying to land the KPMG position as it's for the Canary Wharf office. I don't really fancy living on Reading...or ive been thinking maybe living in London and commuting out which is not ideal. Still have an assessment day...

yeah i'm still unsure about what im doing it on at the moment. have also done in depth research into a 'Booker Group'- wholesalers audited by KPMG and so am considering them too. its just all a bit boring though and i already banged on about them in my 1st interview. i know people who did theirs...

yeah i think you're right! have actually already partly prepared a presentation on arsenal cos its actually run more like a business. just wanted to have a look at BHAFC though before i commit. although not sure football clubs are the best examples!oh well its more about the delivery than the...

cheers, have just sent a pm

I have an assessment centre with KPMG on wednesday and have to prepare a presentation beforehand on a business-its background and advice on how it can expand. I'm thinking of doing it on BHAFC, and although it's a long shot, was wondering if anyone knows where i can get access to the clubs...

stay up for sure....the last trip to selhurst was one hell of an evening!

i like it

indeed cartwright had an absolute nightmare.....terrible slightly raised away terrace at the time about a metre above the pitch

hargreaves lansdown is a good online broker. charges about 20 quid per deal. i bought heavily into BP in the summer when they were at button prices after the oil spill. people genuinely factoring the possibility of bankruptcy back then. bought at 320, currently around the 500 mark.

I made the closing parties last Summer- amnesia being ridiculous as it started at 6.30am...followed by the extended stint in dc10 from midday monday through to 6am tuesday morning. took me a fortnight to recover- not a well man at the end of it let me tell you!

Big fan of your avatar...i take it you've enjoyed the Monday sessions on the white isle??
