Thank god my supervisor doesn't live on a farm :) I'm only 6 months in, still full of the joys of spring :) I felt just like you at the end of my MSc though, FS. I had to take a year out before starting my PhD to get my study mojo back.

That's a genius idea about the PhDilemmas, Linds, our postgrad people don't do anything like that, I think the director of PhDs in each department bears the brunt of it instead.

ooh hello. Can I join please? My course is more vocational than academic (training to be a Psychotherapist) but I get an NUS card and everything ;) I'm coming to the end of my second year (of either 3 or 4 depending on whether I do the extra year or not). I've cut down my paid work from full time to 3 days per week and I spend the two days I'm not at work out on placement or in supervision. Training is done on weekend courses 10 time per year. And bloody hell I'm knackered ;)

There are lots of OU students on fetch too.
If you're studying then that makes you a student, SusiesueH :)

I want to go back to uni for my masters but with a mortgage etc... and my health board not willing to help out financially it looks like this thread is the closest I will get for a while.

Mine is also voacational - training to be an Educational Psychologist. Nearing the end of my 2nd and final year. Just the small matter of a thesis to submit in July. I need a boot up the arse to get back into it after Easter.

dying* (clearly with a defective laptop) dresses on ASOS, House of Fraser etc for 2 upcoming weddings :-) I bow to all your knowledge as I'm just into year 1 at St Andrews part-time masters (pick and mix subjects). I'm liking the sound of SusiesueH's course as I hope to work in talk based therapies at some point in the future.
