Sounds great Ann!
I wonder what everyone will say tomorrow! Can't wait!
It's been strange week! I even got homework of the week in Maths!
Car ExpertI had a good lesson in maths too, I can now multiply out brackets like
5(7a + x) == 35a + x
still a bit confused with double brackets though

I understand the theory, it just doesn't work lol

That sum looks easy! My questions were on moving averages.

Bit harsh on yourself there.. when you talk about double brackets are you
talking about something like:
(x-5)(y+6)
Just apply each term in turn and get the answer:
xy + 6x - 5y - 30

We've just finished that algebra topic. Completing the square is strangely easy considering it's A* level though...
On another note, I found out that there is a place called 'Phuket' today!

It's the southern island of Thailand. I spent a week there a few years ago now, at the Phuket Island Resort hotel. It's pronounced 'pooh-KET' - it has a silent H, like 'Thailand' does.
There's a resort on the west of the island called 'Patong', which is quite 'interesting' in the evenings - look up 'Simon's Cabaret' on Google....
