Now I feel like I'm having one of those "Is it made out of Legos?" moments..

Shane, they're joking... I hope :-S

At last.... someone spotted it... Someone bothered to read the "good luck...." posts.   Well done McG, you get the "I used my brain today" award. Give the man a cigar!

Is WHAT made out of lego? If it is called a "lego boat" or a "lego car" for example, it probably is... if it doesn't say lego on the tin, it probably isn't.

   That's a classic phrase, my friend.  I guess I'm next one after you who understands here what you meant.

Better to say:  "Congatulations, McG!  You won a hovecraft!"  - If you know what I mean.

Classic, means well known... Clearly it isn't well known so clearly not a classic

[McGherkin]

I know someone who thinks all classical music is from the Harry Potter movies.

It's a huge classic, I remember when it was made.

Just like the "Who is it that removes all my posts".

Anyway I strongly feel we should get back on topic.

Best of luck IRISHJACK..
I just finished my nautical school (theoretical), only have 5 months to sail as cadet left..

So maybe i'll see you sailing by some day ..'

Best wishes, and really hope you enjoy it as much as me !

Yep, along with the "Maybe it ran out of gas?" 

I still think they're one & the same person, but lets get back to where Jack is leaving the active forum life or something like that.

Hi guys,

Thank you ALL for your really nice comments....Its hard to believe I leave school in a matter of a few months

Hopefully once I've sorted things out I'll be able to come back here more often again, everything is just a little un-settled at the moment...Also, I am taking the foundation route, which means I have to study for another few years to get some extra A Levels, which will give me an edge over other possible cadets...In the long term it means it's better for me.

Once again, thanks everyone...I'll always be lurking around somewhere! - But I just might not be on as regularly, as time is of the essence now!!



Jack.

Well good luck with your studies.

I started my last year and I only can recommend them!
I never was so happy to go to school as I am now.

As well as knowing that it would possibly be a good bonus to have on my CV. Which I am soon going to start sending to companies to apply for cadetship...

Aren't you just going to nautical college?
In Belgium and the Netherlands you can just go to nautical college without working (or studying) for a company.

[McGherkin]

Don't worry Jack, A levels are not all that bad! I'm a year in and whilst there are some hard bits, you get them eventually!

If you aspire to senior rank at sea, might I suggest a secretarial course!

Jack, it is all down hill from now on, I'm afraid... Work- the novelty will wear off... (it did for me... but not straight away... I made it 'til lunchtime on my first day)
