Now that I know the details I will enter and win instead, and send you postcards telling you how much fun I'm having in Paris. Bwahahaha!

The Thread™ will die.

Is it really sensible to discuss plans for beating other people on a public forum ?
Anyway, Jaz, aren't you forgetting the plan involving the kipper and the thatched bungalow? |

I smell a viral marketer
bigOz, just so you know, when you sign up you do pass a notice that says we don't allow viral marketing on this forum. I would appreciate it if you could add our site to your employer's opt-out list. |

Yes, but that was hardly my usual style. In fact, I was acting out of emergency at the point, because RaMa had stolen my Mustard Custard recipe. I'd never risk something like that without Mustard Custard usually. We were bloody lucky that we survived at that time. The Bungalow might have turned into a Kraken, or something worse might have happened, without the Mustard Custard. As I said, it was sheer luck that everything went as well as it did. -

Open uni is very convenient because you can spend 7-8 years to complete a degree. It is based on modules each worth 30 points for levels 1 & 2 and 60 points for level 3. You need 300 points for an ordinary degree and 340+ for a degree with Honours. I have been doing a module a year, but last year did two. It is not really that hard, and there are many subjects to chose from that will help improve your job prospects. |
