11th August All A levels now graded A level


In an amazing academic anomoly, 36 yr old, Thickazza Brick, was aatounded to discover that just walking past his local 6th form college yesterday was enough to be awarded three A's and an A * grade in this years A level results giveaway.

Unlike back in the early 1980's when exams were proper and you actually had to learn stuff, this years grades seem to have been based on how well you managed to suck up to your teachers during your online tutorials and infrequent in school sessions. Or buy them a not so annonymous Amazon gift voucher to ensure your route to a degree course in Media Misinformation is assured.

Speaking to Grace Under Pressure's extreemly educated editor, Hucknall resident, Thickazza Brick, revealed, "Yeah, like I was just on my way to Aldi n stuff. I was slouchin' past the local College when suddenly this man rushed out, shouted 'Eh up me duck here's your results', thrust an envelope in my hand and demanded that I open it. Imagine my shock when I discovered I got four really stonkin' A level results, even though I've never ever set foot inside the college." 

"The man said I can now go to Cambridge to be a vet n stuff like someone called Dr Noel who does things with dogs on TV. No fear man, I ain't gonna be stickin' my arm up no cows arse even if it is gonna be live on Sky. Instead I'm gonna stroll on down there again this afternoon and see if I can get myself a nice City and Guilds in bricklaying or maybe decorating. Then I'd have the prefect excuse to celebrate by painting the town red."

6th May Olbia

  A chance to stretch our legs today with our first port of call; Olbia, Sardinia. And it was a quick stretch too due to it being only a five hour stay. Up bright and early, so early in fact that the hot food at the buffet wasn't even ready to be served. Still it gave us a chance to watch the ship glide into port past a host of oyster/mussel beds, before performing a 180 degree turn to reverse into it's berth. A couple of short bus rides later and we were in downtown Olbia. But there an hour or so before anything appeared to open, the disadvantage of being early birds and something we don't seem to learn! Not that Olbia had a great deal to see or maybe if we had done the slightest bit of planning beforehand there might have benn but we didn't. It was pleasant enough but that's about it. It was pleasant enough but nothing special, indeed we were back on the ship after just a couple of hours ashore and then managed to sleep away most of th...

7th May Naples

Image
 I'm sure I've heard the phrase 'see Naples and die' suggesting that it is perhaps not the nicest location in the Mediterranean but if it's good enough for Diego Maradona fir a few years then it's good enough for me for 10 hours. Although the millions of tax free pounds he was paid might have eased his stay. By the time we got up, washed, dressed and up to The Kitchens, the rest of the ship were already there. Compared to the Marie Celeste of yesterday it was absolutely packed, presumably with people having breakfast before heading out on 8am excursions, our excursion was simply going to be the city of Naples itself as possible trips to Vesuvius, Pompei or the Amalfi coast would have been too much / tired.  So on a day when the weather initially seemed uncertain, we jumped aboard route A for the Hop on Hop off bus and headed out into the mayhem that is the Napoli traffic where it was every van, car and scooter for the selves. I think it's bes...
