Gosh, this is turning into a Dunelm reunion thread. Pleasing to those of us who have yet to leave (after 14 years)...

Hello GreatBritishBAECOff. Another Hatfield man here (BA, PhD, but not quite as recent as you). Now Emeritus Professor - that's how long ago it was.
The late Howard Phelps, who had a long career with BOAC and BA, latterly as operations director, began his flying days at our old college where was an RAF cadet undergraduate. I got to know him as a stalwart of the Hatfield Association.

Hmm.
As befits my lowly Ag status, I can lay claim to the following motley collection:
BEng (Hons)
C&G RAE (historical class B radio amateur, now Full)
Swimming club instructor wotsit
Grade 2 Bb Tuba
DoE Bronze (possibly a omen of things to come)
I'll get my coat

Mine is a tale of regret and a waste of many years. I have as follows
MA (economics)
MSc (information systems management)
Can't remember the letters but I was a Member and then an Associate of the Institute of Bankers
PGCE
The regret and waste aspect is that I am self-employed and in no way use any of my qualifications. Though having a basic degree opened doors that might otherwise have been closed. While university was beyond fun I wish I'd skipped it and worked for myself sooner.
