what did you reply, also was it just an online application? I said: Nobody can tell exactly when they will meet their soul mate. However, if you keep your eyes open, you are likely to meet them sooner rather than later. Thought it was very much an aqa standard answer. "You will be sent an Internet Researcher job description, application form and researcher test in the next few days. The researcher test is conducted over the internet and takes one or two hours." is the auto response you get when you first apply. It is a test basically done in excel, where it includes rules, questions, how long it takes etc. Fingers crossed I get the job!

Filled in my application form and test yesterday. Asked me some right weird questions like "When will I meet my soul mate?". Hard to keep it between 120 and 153 characters too!

Be interesting to ask them a question about toontastic message board, see what they come up with. As they'll inevitably type it into google and come across this.

Glad to hear all is well Boyo! Congrats

Yeah thats what was in the application pack, I'll be doing that this evening. Fingers crossed! The answers are fairly humorous at times too

Anybody got any decent stories about answers they've got from AQA? Anyone got a very decent answer back to an impossible question? AQA is hilarious for a pub session, can get some right funny answers. Anyway, I applied for a job there Monday, got my application pack back today so will be sending it off asap. Good though because you work whatever hours you want, however long you want and from the comfort of your own home. ideal for student bums such as myself

Yeah, I did think that the first half of the film was class, the second half was average at best, so made a good film I thought.

On my shopping list is: Pair of leather gloves Decent headphones Sopranos complete box set. Anybody know the cheapest place to get the headphones and sopranos from? (I know sopranos can be "aquired" illegally but would prefer to have the dvds). Not too sure about the sopranos though beacuse I heard they added an extra "part 2" bit onto the end of series 6, so not sure whether that would be included in the complete box set.

Did you watch it at the cinema, just out of curiosity? I went yesterday and was good, but seems they really have tweaked the book to fit in with Will Smith's hollywood persona. Still, a good film. Fairly jumpy too at times

This time next year we'll be millionaires

Laying a bet means you are betting on something not to happen – a match not to end in a draw, a horse not to come in first, a rugby team not to win by over 7 pts etc. It might sound new, but you’ve probably been doing it unconsciously for years. Have you ever had a bet with a mate? It might have been over a game of pool, or on a football match on TV. Two opposing sides, two opposing opinions. He’s backing his team – if they win, he wins. If they lose, you win – you’ve effectively layed his bet by betting on something not to happen. With Betfair you can not only lay any selection, but also choose the price you want to take, and how much you are prepared to risk. The shorter the price you wish to lay, the less money you have to risk compared to your potential reward. Laying the Tie in the market below at 13.5 might sound safe, but for every £10 you want to win, you have to risk £125 - high risk and low reward. The market says Europe at 1.9/1.91 are much more likely to win, but to win £10 by laying that outcome, you only need to risk £9.10. In the example, you’ve chosen to lay the USA at the current odds of 2.52. Note that on the left hand side, your potential loss (liability) is shown as £15.20 but on the right the figure is £25.20. This is because the other person’s stake is included in the Payout figure, as each Betfair user must ‘pay’ for their bet first with the money held aside from their account until the market and each bet is settled. There are all sorts of reasons why people lay bets. Some people find it easier to pick a horse that won’t win, than one that will win. Some people lay a bet because they think the price is too short. Others will lay first, then look to back the same selection later in-play – that’s called Trading (see ‘What is Trading?), Laying need not be scary – you are in full control of how much you wish to risk and how much you could win. In a lay bet, you always stand to win the stake of the opposing bet (e.g. £10 in the example above). You could be betting against one person or several. As mentioned above, your liability is £15.20 To turn on the Predictive Profit & Loss (P&L) or ‘What If?’ function shown above, click on ‘Options’ above each market once you’ve logged in.

Yes, you would "lay" Sheffield united qualifying. So in the normal market where you'd "back" teams going up you can just "lay" them instead

Not too sure, not seen him around in a while!

just some clueless teenage ozzie spouting off as if he knew anything about football/newcastle. he was amusing though. he entertained the board in a manner similar to leazesmag plus he had some interesting views about the advantages of playing viana as a defensive midfielder And Swindon Mag? fuck; yeah. wtf happened to him? Didn't he use this great avatar: Who remembers the poster who used this one:

Saw the fanta and thought of that old Swedish poster Nisse for some reason. No idea why!

Notice Karl Pilkington is in there. Seems a lot taller than I'd expected!

Absolutely. And can I also add people who appear to have no interests in life or opinions on anything consequential whatsoever, people like that contribute nothing. Even though my housemate is one of my best mates I get so so annoyed at him sometimes. If you ask him if he wants to go out he'll either reply with "I dunno" or "it's not my scene" when you know full well he'll regret it if he doesn't come out. Sometimes he's his own worse enemy as he misses class nights out cos he's so indecisive. We call him the "King of hindsight"

Barcelona is class. Take one of the shuttle buses to the city centre is my advice btw - cheaper than a taxi and quicker than the train. Quality, cheers pal. Looks like my mates finally made the right choice! Looks like it's gonna be 50 quid for two nights including flights and accomodation. Cheap airlines and shite hostels I imagine though

Looks like my mates have decided on going to Barca. Was either there or Milan but the Milan airport was quite far away from the centre, whereas the Barcelona one is in the centre apparantly.

I know its quite hypocritial due to my "Sweden" Thread, but indecisive people do my nut in

Anybody ever been to Milan for a weekend out? We're considering that as its the same price as Sweden, but meant to be better and cheaper.

Think you'll find that is women's number one excuse for splitting up with somebody without hurting their feelings.. that and "I don't want to get hurt"

Cheers Meenzer. We're just looking around again, maybe Brussells would be good.. Not been there for a few years! Ideally we'd go to Prague but the flights are a bit expensive for there.

If she isn't coming to yours or you aren't going to hers for the break, then you're all good. You're basically fuckbuddies, she'll probably get more over the break than you aswell That's what I'd have thought. Though she was running her mouth the other day about where she stands with me and how many girls I've been with etc. Probably covering herself up for the inevitable her getting more over the break
