AmyLGK Posted 2 May 2014 Share Posted 2 May 2014 When we got relegated I was well and truly enjoying a hedonistic lifestyle, clubbing my life away. Since then I've got a degree, a PhD, a husband, and 4 cats, combated my stage fright and now sing in a multi-award winning choir, as well as in a quartet (the latter are competing next week eeeek), been on the radio and to the House of Commons talking about my nuclear science research and travelled the world. Unfortunately lost 4 friends in the last 10 years - all too young, two were city fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEBIGJOHNSTEADER; Posted 2 May 2014 Share Posted 2 May 2014 Alot of you appear to have fallen into the life society expects of you - mundane job, mortgage, baby, chronic flatulence and a girlfriend or wife with terrible breath. It's not too late to break out of the mould. It's not to late to satisfy your sexual urges.

Tommy G Posted 2 May 2014 Share Posted 2 May 2014 I'm originally from Burbage, where abouts you bought? I'm moving back from London within the next 18 months once I've qualified in CIMA.

I still have post traumatic stress disorder from my 10 year career in the field. In final my week at uni doing a science degree. Need one more exam. Think postive for ol' MF the long time sufferer.

Master Fox Posted 2 May 2014 Share Posted 2 May 2014 Each to their own but pays the bills. This! This is the attitude where it all goes wrong. I thought like this too. I dropped my secure job, money, mortgage. Packed it all in. People called me crazy. But I was right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oshhhh Posted 2 May 2014 Share Posted 2 May 2014 Travelled the World, made and lost a fortune, created a booming business and fcuked it up, avoided the nick, met Jimmy Savile, drank and gambled more than I will for the rest of my life, aged about 25 years and pissed off more women than Max Clifford. Wouldn't change a minute of it. may i ask how you travelled the world?? always been a great intrest of mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Fox Posted 2 May 2014 Share Posted 2 May 2014 So you packed it in now doing a science degree? just because it wasn't for you doesn't mean it's not for everyone Yeah. That's right. In my final week. I did a part time accountancy job for the first two years to 'pay the bills'. But not for my final year. If you like it, then fair play. I think I remember having this argument with you about 5 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like it, then fair play. I think I remember having this argument with you about 5 years ago. I think a part time accountancy job is a bit different to doing it full time in practice or industry with study support and pay etc. I dont have any interest in science, but i wouldn't pour molten lava over my eyes like you said. Good luck to you if it's something that interests you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to you if it's something that interests you Sorry to be downer. But you do realise scientists have written algorithms that will replace all accountancy jobs within the next 5-10years. It's the second most likely job to become obsolete in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best mate used to live there growing up, might even be the same house as there's only about 10 down that little stretch. Lovely cottages. Probably see you in the boozers mate, I'm back there at least once a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People called me crazy. But I was right. I tend to agree with you, I'm a coont though mate. Qualified in what I really want to do in life but sacked it off as I got scared of the lack of security. I'll go back to that in time but for now I'm happy to bollocks up this country as an accountant for the NHS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
