Aye Doc I think she deserves some answers from them.
When I'm next up there to visit I'll get her to show me the correspondence and see what can be done.

She should be given a place anyway for the mistake they made, numbers surely can’t be that exact 🤷‍♂️

I'm no sure how it works Joe.

I think it might make a difference whether it was a conditional or unconditional offer, Jimmy. Conditional offers can be recinded in certain circumstances. Unconditional offers are legally binding if I understand correctly. I'm not sure if Universities, Colleges and Admissions Services (UCAS) applies in Scotland but they'd probably be first port of call if so. Certainly, the uni's admissions office has to be contacted to express the difficulties this has put her in due to wasting time believing that she has a uni place. Stuff like accommodation arrangements etc. can be mentioned.

If all else fails mate, she can go through clearing through UCAS. Clearing is when unis fill up any places they have left on their courses. It begins around first week of June until October.
 
I've sent her a link for the UCAS thing Stu.

She's a bit gutted the now. But I'll be up at the hoose early next week and go through the next things to do.

My gut feeling is she will get something, Jimmy. Who knows, it might even turn out better than her original choice.

Good luck.

Oh aye. Never stick a Friday nighter in your roll up. I've done it a fair bit but always without realizing. A real shit way to start your Saturday when it's a loser.

When a fuckin uni tells your grandbairn they have been accepted for a place.

Only to notify her a week later that it was a mistake and she shouldn't have been sent that. 🤬🤬

People that use "retard" make my fucking blood boil. And from a bouncer I did not expect to hear it from too.
So much for respecting eh?

A wee update on this. A geezer I do/done work for offered to get involved. He knows the top geezers in the uni game.

But the story changed a wee bit. It ends up she was to attend an interview at the college she is at the now.

And never went. She's an 18 year old who Cannae be told anything.

It changes the story big time. Her big brother got up of his arse. Got an apprenticeship.

He's had one day off in over two years. Attends Telford. Works weekends on jobbers with the tradesmen at his work.
 
Speccy nyaffs with fuckin' backpacks walking around shops. It's bad enough negotiating food delivery c***s with backpacks when you're trying to collect your McDonald's, but these gadgies clogging up the aisles in supermarkets do my head in. Just take the fuckin' thing off and carry it like a bag when you're in a confined space. Twats do it standing up on buses & trains too.
 
The ret... ehhhh ... sorry ... The "reprobates" responsible for scheduling matches at the Australian Open.

11:30 p.m. on a Tuesday evening and Djokovic & Alcaraz are only 2-2 in the 3rd set.
Who the f**k is going to stay up watching that?
It's 7:30 a.m. in New York and lunchtime in Europe. Who benefits from this timetable?
It's often said that Collingwood football fans are proof that Tasmanians can swim. Personally, as a former resident of Sydney, I reckon that applies to the whole population of Victoria.
Bloody drongos!
 
Disny annoy me BUT , just seen a dork in boots ( the chemist ) wearing his fife bus pass thingy hanging from his belt 😩🤣

That thing politicians do where they point at someone in the crowd as if they recognise them. This sort of thing:

They all do it and it’s so fake it grinds my gears into powder, out of all proportion

Not a purist example as I don’t think they are pointing at a person they allegedly ‘recognise’ but for sheer stagey, cameras are on us artificiality, plus the synchronisation- this is a new fave:

SSN , heavy coverage of Lewis Hamilton trying out his Ferrari for next season WTAF, idolatry to the extreme 🤮

Smokers who stand in the doorway of a pub and don't move when you're going in or out, They've got the whole street to choose from ffs.

I stopped smoking 40 years ago and I basically can’t stand the smell of fag smoke 🤮
When I pass someone outside a shop etc. smoking , I have to waft the smoke from them away , they may no be happy about me doing that but tuff shit 🤣
On cruises I stay well away from smokers on the decks in the smoking areas 😩
 
Impossible challenge I would say especially if you are a football supporter. So aye it's annoying folk telling you no to get annoyed....


Give up complaining for 30 days?

There’s no way I can conquer this January challenge.

Enter Isabelle Gonnissen, a Belgian woman who seems to be annoyingly obsessed with positivity.

She wants all the whingers and whiners out there to change their tune and celebrate the little things in life.

Several years ago, Gonnissen launched a 30 Days Without Complaining challenge in Belgium; this year, she’s reportedly bringing it to the Netherlands.

It’s time to celebrate all the little things in life, according to an annoyingly upbeat Belgian campaigner. But what if whingeing is actually good for you, writes Arwa Mahdawi
