Oh wow, that does sound like a fascinating job. Of course I've heard of the Press Association. I'd love a job that involves writing, which makes it all the stranger that I've worked with numbers for nearly thirty years!

I have sinned and need to confess! Just had a hugely calorific (but extremely delicious!) lunch, because my Dad took us out. I couldn't resist the sound of a Chicken Tikka Naan Burger (basically a chicken breast with tikka sauce, onion bhaji pieces and mango chutney between two mini naan breads) with curly fries, followed by Ice Cream Brownie Cake. Oops!!

It is different I suppose, I would prefer to do more writing myself, I got to write the headlines, but the stories were written down in London and we subbed it to reflect any changes in the ftse at the time, and then for the bigger pages we had to add our own bits, then again I don't know if I would of had the confidence to write the full stories myself for everyone.
I know what you mean, was talking about this to the hairdresser yesterday, originally I wanted to be a primary school teacher... But once u start going down a path it feels to hard & to late to change direction doesn't it because of the money, time, and uncertainty of the future prospects when you have the security of a well paid job

Thanks, everyone, sorry if I made you hungry, lol. I must say it was blinking lovely! I couldn't find calorie info online, and the staff looked at me blankly when I asked, but it's probably just as well! xx

In the early days of my accountancy training, when I thought I'd never get the hang of double entry bookkeeping, I did look at a couple of alternatives, one of which was teaching. I also took and passed the civil service entrance exam. But then things started to click and I passed some exams, so accountancy kind of stuck!!

I know, it's funny. When I started out, with KPMG in 1985, hardly anyone I worked with had done a relevant degree, they were from a wide range of disciplines. Unlike your sister though, I was absolutely useless at maths!!
I was only 5 then lol
