Gemmill 34545 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I once (genuinely accidentally) misreported my A Level results on a job application. The bloke interviewing me said "So you got so and so on your A levels...." "no I didn't" Turns the application form so I can see it.... "Oh.....that's not what I got." To his credit, he didn't sling me out immediately, but I think we both knew that we were just playing out a scene from that point on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawb 3660 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Don’t think I’ve ever lied but nobody has ever asked to check mine, so maybe I should have done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 26902 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 My eldest daughter's been stressed to fuck about her GCSEs, (she takes after me about getting up a height, the poor girl), but....she's actually done very well including a couple where none of us, her included, thought she had a chance in. Relieved and happy for her. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 26902 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Also relieved that my old dear is on her 6th, and hopefully last, chemo session today. At our age we get to worry about the young'uns and the old'uns. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew 4224 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Coming to the end of day 1 in New Zealand. I've had a thrilling time so far, I got in about 3pm yesterday, went to bed and stayed there until 7am today. Went to bed bath and beyond today and bought bedding and towels, my landlady was kind enough to leave a bed made up for my arrival but that stuff isn't staying. Need to get a car and a guitar sorted over the next few days and I'll be ready to get to work on the 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 13867 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Quite fancy one their Les Paul Jrs or aged Les Paul's but it's just costume jewellery & they can't possibly be decent guitars. That said if you whacked some decent pickups..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
