That would be really interesting to do. I'll consider it, when I'm out of high school.

Online course? And here's me expecting University-based frolics in Wales with other Barrowdowners.
We could all share a flat. Just an idea...

I got top bunk! Who has my plane ticket?
Yeah, it would be quite cool if several downers did it together. Then I'd have someone I could cheat....ing is bad, and something I wouldn't do.

 It could be like The Young Ones. Who's going to be Neil? I would actually be scared of doing a course about Tolkien, in case I got bad marks! The shame would be unbearable! But online learning is a great idea if anyone fancies it. You usually get access to a 'chat area' where you can discuss your assignments with other distance learners, so you have no need to miss out on the sociable aspects (hey, you can have a beer while you type if you want to imagine yourself in a student union...). It also allows people to learn more at their own pace, and it doesn't exclude anyone with limited time in the day. There, that's my 'official' side coming out, I used to deal with that kind of learning as my job.

I'm too much in love with the campus lifestyle. Besides, if I had to study online I'd get distracted by the Barrowdowns.
As for The Young Ones, I'm used to being Neil, it being one of my names and all.  *Note: The Young Ones is not entirely representative of British Student Life.

I am quite tempted by this - it would be more interesting than last year's Certificate in computerised payroll ( admittedly this is not a challenging criteria and I think I have all the books.) But is my brain up to such exertion? And I used to have Neil style hair....
