Nixy, would gladly offer you 'mates rates' Scots law is completely different to English law however. Family law is always a minefield too, as you most likely know!

Things are different up here (I'm in Scotland) - our equivalent of the LPC is technically called the Diploma in Legal Practice (although a lot of us still refer to it as the LPC). They're meant to be on the same level I think, and serve the same purpose, but ours is obviously easier Good luck on securing a traineeship, I know it's a nightmare - and even more so just now due to the credit crunch

Capri is in the garage so Zed has to sit in the drive for the time being.. think I need another garage ! Double is the way to go So you have a Capri also?? Get some pics of both up for us all to have a nosey

Hiya, whereabouts are you studying? Do you have a traineeship lined up for after the LPC? Oh how I hated that course, but still, I'd rather swap and go back to being a student now (sorry) I can't remember much in general off the top of my head but feel free to PM if you want to pick my knowledge (limited as it is!). I recall the LPC being a doddle compared to the LLB so you'll be fine, good luck

You guys are brave, the streets round me are still shocking with ice and snow, the Z is still tucked up in the garage!

Wise choice That is so insensitive of you stew, to view women like that. Just because Cara has a good job does not mean we can view her as a sex symbol... god honestly I can't believe you guys, you make me sick, Cara is on here because she shares a common interest in cars, just because she is female does not mean we have to act like cavemen when she posts something like being a solicitor for career... even if she does wear a pinstripe suit, low cut top, short mini skirt with suspenders and high heels, hair down fringe seductively browsing over her glasses, legs that go all the way up and in my imagination seductively seducing me with her eyes as she tells me Im guilty and will be punished... oh god... Ive done it again... mama lmao I actually thought being a solicitor would be yawn-inspiring rather than induce such fantasies, looks like I was wrong

Why thank you So it seems .. and there was me thinking I was buying something a little different but it turns out they're common as muck ! Only for those of us who have good taste

Hello and welcome - we're definitely taking over up here

Wise choice

Warning - Man Flu 1. Man-Flu is more painful than childbirth. This is an irrefutable scientific fact*. *(Based on a survey of over 100,000 men.) 2. Man-Flu is not 'just a cold'. It is a condition so severe that the germs from a single Man-Flu sneeze could wipe out entire tribes of people living in the rainforest. And probably loads of monkeys too. 3. Women do not contract Man-Flu. At worst they suffer from what is medically recognised as a 'Mild Girly Sniffle' - which, if a man caught, he would still be able to run, throw a ball, tear the phone book in half and compete in all other kinds of manly activities. 4. Men do not 'moan' when they have Man-Flu. They emit involuntary groans of agony that are entirely in proportion to the unbearable pain they are in.. 5. Full recovery from Man-Flu will take place much quicker if their simple requests for care, sympathy and regular cups of tea are met. Is that really so much to ask? Florence Nightingale would have done it 6. More men die each year from MFN (Man-Flu Neglect) than lots and lots of other things. (Like rabbit attacks or choking on toast). 7. Men suffering from Man-Flu want nothing more than to get out of bed and come to work, but they are too selfless to risk spreading this awful condition amongst their friends and colleagues. In this sense, they are the greatest heroes this country has ever known. 8. In 1982 scientists managed to simulate the agonising symptoms of full blown Man-Flu in a female chimp. She became so ill that her head literally fell off. 9. Man-Flu germs are more powerful than He-Man, The Thundercats and The A-Team combined. They are too strong for weak, nasty tasting 'lady medicines' like Lemsip, so don't bother trying to force them on a victim of Man-Flu. 10. While it may seem like a Man-Flu sufferer is just lying around enjoying 'Diagnosis Murder' it is a commonly recognised medical fact that the exact pitch and frequency of Dick Van Dyke's voice has remarkable soothing powers. Every minute in this country one man is struck down by Man-Flu. Women, all we ask is that each of you offers them a cup of tea, some kind words and your undivided attention and care. Then maybe, just maybe, we'll beat this monstrous disease together.

I dont believe you... post some pics of yourself in office outfit... rubbing my thighs... down boy down then take your glasses off, put the leg of the glasses to your lip. Then place them on the desk, let your hair down and shake your head slowly Edited Jay to what you really wanted! sorry finger slipped over icon to many times Well that's certainly given me a laugh this morning! You'll just have to take my word for it

I'm a solicitor. Interesting to see what everyone does for a living

I'm in the supposed minority too then. I admire some in other people, those that are done well and have real meaning. I've thought about it, but I'm so indecisive and the permanent nature scares me - it'd have to be something I think I would be happy with for life, and it would definitely be something small and somewhere discreet - I'm not a fan of large obvious tattoos, on women especially.

Got these in a FW email today, raised a laugh or two

Seen it before but a good one

I've see this several times, but still has me laughing out loud every time

Still buried in snow here. Sick fed up of trudging through the stuff to get anywhere, and haven't dared take the Z out of the garage so far. So, yip, welcome to some of ours!!

Sorry to hear this, bad times for a lot of people. I am not getting the salary I should be getting this year either, lots of cutbacks, but I suppose I'm just grateful that my firm is coping alright - so far - compared to so many others around laying off staff. Hope you pick up some other work soon.

Manual. For the reasons already mentioned including the feel/involvement, and re-sale issues. At the end of the day it's personal preference though and neither is 'right/wrong'. Good luck Patience isn't easy is it!

I've nothing to add to the OP's question, but just had to at this.

Especially depending upon what the couple were doing 'sat inside the car'

I like Terry's style

Yes We walked past this parked up Zed with a couple sat there inside it - and I could'nt do it I just could'nt go up with my club fleece with massive logo on the back - tap on the window and offer a club card!! Pmsl, I can just imagine Like the pose in the first pic - doing a male model attempt?
