You just don't know when to stop do you!!! I fessed up to were I stand on Degree's, my position is that if you are lucky enough to have one then you should use iit!!!

You can take your self righteous clap trap and stick it where the sun doesn't shine you pompous git.

now get off my back you twasik.
 
It's not self-righteous clap trap dj - it's just a lovely thing to appreciate...can't help myself - just like you.;)

Oh, and it's like all the other personal milestones mentioned on here - worth appreciating, because it means something to someone. If it means nothing to you then keep away from the topic - easy.

Ah, I think you have still missed my point, haven't you!!!

And why do you think I am getting so heated about it? Ask yourself that!!

You are clearly just baiting me now and I am not going to take it from you. Good bye. Oh and yes you can have the last say on this if it makes your small mind feel better.

There's only been one small minded poster on this thread and it wasn't Aperitif...

You may not be stupid, but you are a rude plank.

Only just got online, thanks to all those who've been sticking up for my sentiment. Having seen some of the other acheivements, overcoming illness etc, I wondered if my own little bit of respect was underwhelming, but I'm glad to see so many others see it for what it is.

As a matter of fact, it was mostly self funded, with a small local authority grant towards books. And since it's her first degree, she's only claiming the chance that everyone else has had offered to them, if they bother to take it. If she'd come from a better off family, she'd perhaps have had the chance when she was 18, having had a scholarship to a grammar school.

As for using it - well, she's spent her life working and bringing up me and my sister, usually on a tight budget, I think she deserves to do something for pleasure, don't you?

No need to presume.

There's been an ample demonstration of it. :blush:

Possession of a degree does not rid one of stupidity.
