Welcome to the forum
Keep looking - you will find 'the one' - you're obviously prepared to go UK wide in your search - which is good - I'm in Fife and I found mine in Essex!
It won't be long until you've got the zed face ache
Rich - check this out..........Scotland always was light years ahead of England in terms of education

Gary still expects his stocking filled!
Anyhoo bah humbug - hate it
i'm sorry but text speak is just lazy, i text people and i still use all the letters. i suppose i hate it more than most as i'm a teacher.
my other pet hate is wanna be gangsters, or gangsta, as they say. what make sit funny is i work in woodbridge, and the kids come from a pretty affluent area or are farm kids. so basically as gangster as a tellie tubby
I'm quite sad to see such comments from a professional who has the opportunity to communicate effectively with young people! Its not lazy - its just another evolution in language and it will not go away.
Txt speak has been used in several education settings in the UK over recent years and has shown significant impact when used in multi-media projects within deprived areas.
I can completely understand the worry about dumbing down -and even I have problems with 'gangsta speak' but if it helps to get young people to participate within their community and I'm all for it.
However Rich - I completely agree with your observations on the 'tellie tubbies' - its funny to watch middle class kids acting out sometimes - but hey they soon wake up when they hit the real world
Guys chill the f out ............. each one to their own............live & let live..........can't think of any more cliches........but modding is a very personal thing there is no accounting for personal taste
However, one thing is for sure 'txt speak' is zero indication of 'chaviness' - merely a shortcut to expression

I've been looking at Track Insurance recently - (Alex stop laughing!) - but come to conclusion not worth paper its written on especially with the huge excesses - basically - you choose to track it you take your chance mate
Neo - I wasn't ranting at you by any means - just make sure he knows that he can get them free - many young people just don't know where to access these services
ALWAYS Beemer drivers - they are defo the worst offenders and its always on a busy roudabout that you could've had a chance to get out onto if they'd bothered to use them
He shouldn't need to buy them they're free from GPs, clinics and student unions - sorry I get bee in bunnet about people having to pay for them - sexual health promotion / teen pregnancy is a huge part of my job
