Have you dunnit yet?

Did ours to-day ont computre.

It didn't mention GNVQs, which I wasn't happy about. At least, I don't think it did, anyhoo... umm...

[dng]

but its not sunday yet

[dng]

you're only supposed to do it on sunday

[dng]

you might ruin everything now because everything you told them will be wrong

[dng]

what if you suddenly begin to self replicate and there's eight homfruses by then?

[dng]

what if you have a baby

[dng]

what if your house suddenly moves to york?

[dng]

what if you evolve into non human form

[blombluss]

All that is fine, just as long as it mentions GNVQs!

[blombluss]

what if you evolve into non human form

Whaddya mean evolve into? :p

[blombluss]

what if you have a baby

I'm hoping what I've actually got is just trapped wind, but you never know these days...

[endar]

i have yet to do mine

me and my brother were discussing if they would actually bother chasing you if you don't do it

also how we put jedi in 2001, but not last time because we'd grown up a bit by then

[vom]

I did it on the day the letter arrived, since why would anything change ever

Also because I didn't read the thing about the 21st

[Mrak]

I'm pretty sure ours mentioned NVQs. It was in small print. Or are they different to GNVQs? I have a BTEC.

[The Robotic Anomaly]

Yeah I did mine early. Am I going to get FINED ONE THOUSAND POUNDS, as the adverts keep suggesting if I fail to confirm I still exist.

[blombluss]

I'm pretty sure ours mentioned NVQs. It was in small print. Or are they different to GNVQs? I have a BTEC.

Yup, they mentioned NVQs, but didn't mention GNVQs (I'm really doubting myself about that now, mind!). I *think* they are/were different to GNVQs, but I'm just being petty, 'cos I was well pleased to get me a GNVQ in Media Studies!

[blombluss]

SNAP!

Mother was FURIOUS when I did that!

Based on that, I can only conclude that she was/is a follower of the Galactic Empire.

[dng]

It doesn't mention GNVQs at all

But the entire qualifications bit is completely shit anyway, for some reason (we got the form through the post today). one of the questions says do you have a a qualification at degre level or higher, an dthen lists a loud of things lower than a degree (like HNDs). it doesn't ask about post grad qualifications, or professional qualifications, or anything like HGV licences or whatever qualifications. And then it has one question saying do you have any other qualifications, which is just a tick box, with no place to actually sepcify what those qualifications are. Maybe i'm supposed to tick yes because i passed a how to use microsoft office module when i used to work for essex libraries, who knows

[dng]

then it asks an entire pages worth of qeustions about what your job is (was). What is (was) your job). do (did) you have (has) a job. Are (were) you in charge of other employees (employeedees)

[dng]

nonsensical bollocks

[dng]

although it does have

Q. 17.

This question is intentionally left blank

GO TO Q. 18

[dng]

so maybe everything is worth it just for that

[dng]

if you answer that question they send you to scarfolk

[blombluss]

if you answer that question they send you to scarfolk

Good. They still recognise GNVQs there!

[blombluss]

nonsensical bollocks

Yup, Squire!

[Bruce Sato]

I have filled mine in but not submitted it. Technically I am someone's line manager, but do no actual supervision, not even when we are in the office, so I don't know what to put for that. I ignored all the ignorable questions.

[blombluss]

Guardian: Less than half of Britons expected to tick ‘Christian’ in UK census

I bamlem the Zoroastrianists! Coming over 'ere with their Ahura Mazda cars.

[endar]

Mazda is a load of old Wank(el)

[blombluss]

*groanz*

[The Robotic Anomaly]

Technically I'm trained in how to use a hoist in a car body shop because they had an extra slot when I was there programming their project management database

I was 21

[Pual]

I have done the census

[Pual]

The most exciting thing this year

[endar]

me too, early this morn

i have no idea if my city & guilds in Computer Aided Design from 1995 is even remotely relevant, or what level nvq it was

i remember it was on dos though

which was fun

[Bruce Sato]

Census submitted. Answered the religion question in the end, as I'm fairly sure I answered that one in the last census.

[dng]

am i allowed to answer "essex" for every question

[vom]

I think there's a separate Essensus for that

[blombluss]

The most exciting thing this year

Agreed.

I certainly can't wait to do the next one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111

[blombluss]

Now I'm on a roll, I think I might do the next census to-morrow.

[blombluss]

What is a census anyway?

Is it a kind of bird?

[blombluss]

I've got an NVQ Level 2 in Business Administration.

It's similar to having a licence to kill.

[Gravid]

We don't seem to be doing a census in Scotland. I wonder if they just forgot about us.

[dng]

The Scotland one is next year. I don't know why

[blombluss]

A UDI this year, maybe?

[dng]

i don't know what that means

[endar]

Sounds like a baseball term

[blombluss]

Daren is correct - it *is* a baseball term (it's not a baseball term).

Unilateral
Declaration (of)
Independence

[blombluss]

Council
Mayoral
Police Commissioner

Elections.

All in one envelope. All still to do.

I haven't scrawled that many X's since writing a love letter to Yvette Fielding!!!!!!

[blombluss]

I haz votted for the status quo.

Because I like guitars. And watching middle-aged men lark about whilst performing their latest single on Top Of The Pops.
