Fingers and toes for you BM (as Kath from Kath & Kim would say)! :-)

Good luck, BM! Yet again it's later than expected - 4pm, not 12 noon! I feel wibbly!

Barmaid said...

Thanks Michael - the waiting is cruel. Results are sent via email, so every time I hear the 'ding dong' I start to quiver. Is it too early for alcohol? :-)

Anon - I think the London results are being released throughout the day and Leeds are up on Blackboard later today. Good luck to you too:-)

Michael said...

It's most definitely *not* too early to have a little drinky.... particularly as it's for medicinal purposes in this case! ;-)

What is the best drink to have? Bailey's in the morning coffee? Or is that not quite strong enough? Would brandy be better?

Barmaid said...

Anon - why restrict yourself to just the one, a generous splash of each sounds quite reasonable to me:-)

Michael said...

Good idea, BM... and I'd leave both bottles within easy reach if I were you! ;-)

Still waiting, run out of Bailey's, now onto the brandy! ;-)

Barmaid said...

Anon - Baileys all gone, brandy all gone, now on the dandelion and burdock:-) I have no news either?

Michael said...

Go for it, BM.... get absolutely slaughtered!! ;-) You won't find as good an excuse as this for a while... (plus I'm sure it'll make the news of your great results that much more meaningful when it finally lands in your inbox).

p.s. if you've got long hair, you might want to tie it back now, in readiness for the inevitable retching into the toilet bowl later! ;-)

Never let it be said, I was ever an under-prepared drinker!

Barmaid said...

Michael - the Big White Telephone and I are well acquainted and yes the hair tying back is a good tip - perhaps a Miss Marple bun would make the whole bender appear a little more respectable:-)

My DEAR BM,

May the Giant Spanglie Purple Hat of Serious Bloody Cleverness descend upon your dainty head and bestow you with, at the very LEAST a VC ( if not an outstanding - after all your hard work these past two years, you totally deserve it!!)
Fingers Crossed!!!

Barmaid said...

Thanks Minxy - just got results, no fails which is a relief - totally different to what I'd thought. Did well in the 3 exams that I was concerned about and did okish in the 2 that I thought I'd nailed. That's BVC for you:-)

Well done, BM! Glad to hear you did well.

Michael said...

Ditto that... very well done, BM. :D ... at least the dreaded waiting is over... you can have a 'proper' drink now!!! ;-)

p.s. don't forget the hair trick!

Barmaid said...

Thanks Michael.

Thanks Anon - hope you did ok too?

Anonymous said...

Yes, all was okay in the end, phew! However, I am a worrier, so of course I am worried about whether I made any ethics c***-ups now...

Minx said...

Glad it all went well, Maid - hale and hearty congratulations!!! With respect to the ups and downs of the BVC it only goes to show that the whole thing is, on occaision, pants, but you have prevailed!!!! ( and I think you're bloody fantastic)

Barmaid said...

Bless ya Minxy, you've a heart of gold:-)

Anon - not the only one who started to worry about ethics once the 'famous 5' results were out:-)

Anyways, were almost there, so let's just give ourselves a break:-)

Thanks Bar-barella:-)
