I'm going to do this one

I think it'll be like taking part in a detective novel

Okay Karma, So who are you planning to bump off and not get caught?

And should I be worried?

Oh wow, that sounds really good, I'm sure it'll come in handy outing the trolls too

Nice find Karma, I've signed up for it too. Had a look at what else was on offer but nothing else appealed.

There's this one later in the year

some of them do sound decidedly unappealing 'Understanding the Abdomen' for instance

That looks interesting too Karma, but I think I'll see how I get on with the first one. I don't want to be taking a space that someone else could use if I'm not really getting it.

once it gets started I think we can follow each other taz96 my daughter has signed up for it too

[taz96]

That would be good. It will encourage me to stick at it. I'm all to good at giving up easily...

Me too 


I have done some proper OU courses and have half of a degree, lol!  Story of my life, doing things in halves

Mind you I have a Certificate in Social Science and a Certificate of Higher Education from them, looks good on a CV perhaps.  Can't see me ever completing the degree though, apparently it needs to be completed by 2019 so can't see me having the time

I did forensic medicine as part of my law degree a lot of years ago, it was really interesting. As a child I wanted to be Quincy, now I want to be her off silent witness...

Karma I've been searching the link for later dates but can't find them. Where did you find out that there's another one later in the year? I would love to do that course and hubby wants to do Higgs Boson ( couldn't think of anything worse..but each to their own ) however as we are away for four weeks later on we would need something later in the year.? Any help to point me in the right direction would be appreciated.

Even being a forensic expert isn't going to help hide your DNA on shiny items.
