You are most welcome Bobs Mum.

Some people make these "clueing games" a pleasure to be involved with.

How's Bob going? You mentioned a while ago that Bob had been offered a place in Uni. I'm still curious as to what Bob will be studying.

One of my sons finished school last year, had a couple of offers from uni, accepted one then promptly deferred it for a year. He was offered a 12 mth contract with Country Rugby League to work as a development officer so now he is travelling a great deal and teaching lots of kids (and adults) the finer art of footy, (if there is such a thing) :-)

Take care.
ps: "bob is female"?

Yes Bob is indeed a girl, when she was born her elder brother could not say her name correctly, so, he announced 'i'm going to call her Bob' ---- and it's stuck. She is starting uni (again) this year --- English lit. She has been working and travelling (she leaves at the end of may for 4 months) since leaving school and still unsettled as to what she really wants to do. I tell her not to worry as i am the same and have no idea what i want to be when i grow up either. LOL

Bobs Mum
I'm in my fifties and still don't know what I'll be when "I grow up".
I've had many different careers and I hope there are more to come.
My daughter went to uni to become a teacher.....she finished with 3 bachelor of science degrees, but no teaching. She is now a researcher for a Charles Sturt Uni and tells me "Dad whilst I'm working at uni I might do a few more subjects and become a teacher"
What ever makes them happy is all that counts.
If they can stand on there own feet and be the person they want to.....what else matters!!
Thanks

I am fairly certain that "their" is only used when referring to a possession and people. For example, their hats are over there.

Sorry for butting in..........

"there are more to come" is correct, but "there own feet" isn't.
