Believe me, no van required - this lawyer makes do with the paltry boot in the S2000

CC is doing an OU law degree, but I think his medium to longer term plan is to buy a house in France with a carp lake and retire there when he gets sick of his current comms nerdery day job.

Thats pretty much it - the degree is a personal challenge - not content with an engineering one, I decided an incorrect route maybe have been taken at 19 when I should have done the law I wanted to do but got lured by the glitz and bright lights of comms

Can we just clarify this, Chesh, known for driving like a mincer and avoiding the slightest risk of ending up on his own list, couldn't pull on a heavier similar powered Merc. And you're He's probably not aware of the vtec thingy yet

Chesh, I don't think I had that enthusiasm for the law when it was my first degree, let alone my second
