I will soon have a rather large sum of money.
Somewhere in the region on £800.
Now I am taking my girlfriend to Paris, buying a fridge (possibly the little one from SR) and adopting a loris from London Zoo.
But that leaves me with about £500 at least to spend, if not £600.
So should I get an Xbox?
I already have Splinter Cell on GC and any mulitformat games I would just buy on that.
Should I use some of my money on an box?

The whole school had around 285 people I think. Basically everyone knew eveyone else. Sadly there were some real stuck up snobs who thought they were too good for anyone else. They were mostly little suck ups who wouldn't dream of putting a foot wrong. They used to think I was a badly behaved person because I didn't do my Homework, lol! I was embarassed to say I actually went there but it was the only way I stood a chance for fairly decent marks.

40 people!!!
Blimey. That must have been quite a tight knit community you had there.
There's 135 people in my year, but it's essentially 415, seeing as everyone is friendds with the year above and below.

Same here. I did go to a Comp in the area but it was a waste of time. We were practically told we would all fail one GCSE for disruption etc. At the end of the 3rd year before I started the GCSE course I went to public school. Walked both English and Maths exams and was in within 2 weeks of enquiring.

There were some sorted people at the Comp I went to but due to the fact there were only 40 people in my year at the public school mean there were very few people that weren't totally work focused coming out with BS high marks.

This is what happens when there's nothing else to do.
I'm waiting for a meeting with my boss, and then I get to go home and see my girlfriend before she goes away for 2 weeks :'(

I go to a public school. Luckily it's mixed. I would hate to go to a single sex school. It's wonderful, I'm really lucky.

The main advantage of working over going to school (apart from the pay) is that there isn't any homework. When you go home, you can actually just forget about work. Until the next day, anyway.
