Omg I do hope I never see a college record for myself ever. Prob not the thing at St Martins although I can imagine it on the fashionista courses.
Stella McCartney and her gaaang.

Dh has been offered a NEW JOB! A better job , a good company and it means he can finally escape his tormentors at current job. I am speechless and delighted and so proud of him after the yearSad he's had.

Just had profitably haul in local charity shop (had to return an overdue library book I'd forgotten about) including short red Boden velvety skirt.

MI, FB told me the other day that you are friends with a high-flyer that I was at posh school with. Unless there is someone else with exactly the same name and who looks exactly the same (always possible).

motherinferior · 10/02/2014 14:40

Which is the sort of thing you don't see in the College Record.

lalsy · 10/02/2014 14:41

CV, like it Smile

And great news, Crem

My college record-y thing is strangely dull and unintimidating by the sound of it (Cambridge college), full of very worthy people doing things no-one else understands and having large families. But it is so boring (production brief: present as many facts involving proper nouns as possible in 9 pt text with no pictures) that I never get far through it.

I am however delighted to see that the interview with the Principal is headed 'The significance of great tits' (subhead is about birds). Wonder how they got that one through?

Superb news, CremoWineFlowersCake

So it is just an Oxbridge thing?

Stropps, which initials?

FH

Ah, I met her through MN and she once looked in on this thread - and I think overlapped with CV at Oxford too! Is v lovely woman. Spend Sat night getting pissed eating pizza with her.

Stropperella · 10/02/2014 15:07

She was in the year below me but joined my A level German lit class as she was doing her A level a year early (bi-lingual, as far as I can remember). If she remembers me at all, it will be as the fat, miserable weird girl. Grin

Stropperella · 10/02/2014 15:08

(Although I probably wasn't even that memorable)

motherinferior · 10/02/2014 15:10

Yep, bilingual, scarily clever, and at boarding school to escape her own family Stuff Grin

Blackduck · 10/02/2014 15:11

Cremo!! Congrats :)

Stropperella · 10/02/2014 15:14

There were a couple of other scarily clever people in that class. I wasn't one of them. Grin

Crem - Fab news for your DH - not only new job but escaping horrible people. It must be champers chez vous this evening.

Had a very traumatic start to the day as car battery dead, so neighbour had to lend me her 4 x 4 for the school runHmm. Then had to have break down guy start my engine so I could drive to the garage for a new battery at 200 Euros. Still at least it happened here not on holiday next week.

Stropps v curious about fab woman now. I must admit I have no clue what anybody from school is doing.

hattymattie · 10/02/2014 15:28

Herbs - forgot to add - your DS can do something I can't - a powerpoint presentationSmile I'm impressed.
