It is often rumoured that people who are into swinging are often well educated people so I thought I'd test the theory.

clearly, most of our beloved regs are very, very intelligent, either emotionally, or intellectually, or both. i claim nowt for mesen, but yer "average" swinger on 'ere ((( if there's such a thing! ))) is, in my experience, fairly sharp, and could teach me a thing or two about loadsa stuff!!
there's too many options tho to click for one such as me, who found 'A' level computer science too easy, ((( admits to a very nerdish "grade A" !!! they we're far too impressed by 2000 lines of assembly language noone understood! ))) but didn't have the stamina . . . . . ahem . . . .to get the B.A. in Coronation Street and PostModern BladeRunnerish Textual Analysis / Cultural Studies / Lit Theory type stuff. :P
hence me long rambling irrelevant stylee!!!! etc . . . . .they kinda liked that at uni! ;-)
n x x x ;-) :P

Oh CQ, you made my drink come out me nose :shock:
I've got a QFG in ZRTM, and I'm working towards my second OCFR.
I have no idea what most of those things are. In Australia we speak English. But it doesn't matter. I was never a very good student, always preferring to learn things instead. It doesn't seem to have hurt my career.
You forgot O-Grades, Standard Grades, Highers and Sixth Year Studies off the list, for all of us that got a proper education in Scotland!!! lol
I'm a clever sod too!
Or am I? Dropped out of uni the first time (MMU - JudyTV, loved the gay village too) and am now at Durham Uni, just finished the Foundation Year, start Human Sciences (social anthropology) in October.
Oh, and 9 GCSE's and a BTEC! AND Cycling Proficiency!
AND 6 badges in the Brownies, but I can't remember what....
"Skool of life and misadventures" is missing as well.
Ahhhhhh - Mischief - what a picture you paint my lovely.............
If I have learnt from my mistakes then I must be up around a PHD somewhere about now!

I'm a graduate of UCL (University College London), the place where Jeremy Bentham keeps an eye on us all from his glass case. :scared:
Mike.
I'm only educated to "O" Level standard but feel I'm capable of more. One of these days I'll decide what degree I want to do then I'll come back to the poll when I have my results redface
Sorry we must be the thick couple,so obviously don't belong on this site redface :cry:
I went as far as A levels and Clare did a childcare course until we had our own kids and then thought "fuck that" to looking after other peoples kids. lol
So we'll just go off and sit in the corner with the dunce hats on :cry: :cry: :cry:
Steve,xxx
a.k.a. mister thickie
Totally screwed up education first 7 yrs in UK then next 8 in Canada, then back to UK for last year so no chance of taking O's, A's or anything. Spent next 5 years drifting in various jobs then started my own business, been doing it for 28years now so must have learn't something, just not sure what.
Sorry, I didn`t understand the question.................... :P
Well, I didn`t get the opportunity to do my exams at school, I was too busy getting pregnant redface . I did go back and do my English GSCE, ditched GCSE Maths due to travel issues and because I decided to try higher, not intermediate which is what I was doing. Took an Access Course in Humanities which I bombed (stupidy ignored the fact I needed to do at least 16 hours of this course at home, (I had an 18 month old at home still, as well as two at school rolleyes ) and later took and passed Access in Art and Design :bounce: .
I`m not sure which catagory Access courses fall in, but they are designed for Adults who missed out on the `normal` route to University. It`s a tough course, you have to proove yourself in a year. Needless to say I`m chuffed :smug:
I was going to do my maths and sociology GSCEs alongside a three year pyschotherapy course come September, but have knocked it on the head pending on health and money issues. I would like to try to go all the way to PHd, regardless of career, just because I don`t see why I should stop learning!
I`m horribly ignorant about some thngs though, but although I don`t have alot, the spirit is willing! biggrin
edit: Duh, Access = highers. More coffee methinks!

I have a degree, not saying which subject, but would dearly love to do a masters, but cant find the time!!!!!

There are quite a few UMIST grads on this site after all it was nicknamed 'Perverts Paradise' when I was there lol in fact wbb is at UMIST as we speak. No significance regarding wbb and perverts paradise, err...then again. Well she isn't there at this very moment as she is probably studying something far more interesting than Engineering, English or maths especially at this time of night. :idea:
wink :P

:lol:
just to set the record straight(ish) i WAS at umist when i was a lowely undergrad... i moved somewhere away from all the deviants when i put my postgrad hat on! so there!!!!!!! :twisted: (some one else to corrupt!)
an EX umist-onian.. not a current one! lol
I bow to all you high flyers with your Brownie badges and cycling proficiency. worship
I failed my cycling proficiency test as my bike was falling to bits. Something about brakes not working. I could always stop by putting my feet down so I can't see what the problem was.

PS it hasn't held me back.
10 O levels all grade a
3 A levels grade a
2 hnd s ( used to be called distinction)
Brain the size of a planet and I end up here with Dave j Easy slinky gizzard dawn and the rest of you nutters lol
at least we are sane though arent we warwick confused:
I've got a PhD but would fail Cycling proficiency, never ridden a bike in my life!!
I too from Manchester but Owen's not UMIST, though I did have some lovely lectures at the Materials Science Centre that they shared, was that my first foray into swinging?
Totally wasted the three years because I actually studied instead of spending my time usefully in pursuing casual sex, I guess that's why I'm here now, trying (and failing miserably) to make up for lost time. Did Postgrad at King's in London and was by then too old and ugly to be allowed to pursue fresh faced freshers.
Unfortunately, never took cycling proficency, why has no-one yet made a joke about being really good at riding or did I miss something?
I'm learning my skills at salford uni. Any recomendations for a young and flighty student, judy?
