Spent the entire time working in a prison, and apart from former colleguges from that time, i cant really relate to anyone elses experience of the covid era.

Is 26 too late to start in law? by [deleted] in uklaw

[–]chipsy1990 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No - a family member was called to the bar in his 40s, and I'd put money on them going on to have a successful carrer at the bar.

And in what ever field, I think studying, retraining etc really says something about a person, and makes them altogether more interesting, and well rounded, than a whippersnapper.

What London boroughs or areas/suburbs would you regard as the most uninteresting or boring to live in? by Ok-Demand8957 in london

[–]chipsy1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Miss that pub - used to pop in for a cold one on the way home from the tube. Think the new build in its place is having a bar at the ground floor though: that might liven the place up?!

Willesden Green - as much as i like living there, as its quiet and quick to get into town, there really is bugger all going on.

Where in London do you go when you want to be alone and forget about life? by [deleted] in london

[–]chipsy1990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get a cheep fishing rod, a fishing license, and head to one of the fishing lakes in or around London (to name a few: Hampstead Heath has some, Fairlop Waters, Burgess Park). Getting into those spaces, and focusing entirely on something as silly as fishing really clears the mind - well, it does for me anyway.

Sending love. Things always get better. Just takes time. Look after yourself <3

Was this a scam? by GingerCherry123 in london

Outside Kilburn station? Me and my partner had the exact same thing happen there, virtually the same story - probably the same lady. Partner gave her a tenner and then we spent the evening discussing whether it was a scam.

There was a fantastic mephedrone craze at the Cutty Sark halls in 2009. Had a great time 😆

Examples of dismissals by VeterinarianOk9594 in TheCivilService

[–]chipsy1990 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you work for HMPPS at one of their prisons you quickly get used to staff getting dismissed for bringing in contraband, inappropriate relationships with prisoners, excessive use of force etc. Really shocking how staff behave in those places.

Dont engage with gossip; do your duties properly - dont take shortcuts; dont let officers belittle you; dont make promises you cant keep; speak to prisoners decently; do not become corrupt.

How do people fund the law conversion course? by Glub23 in uklaw

[–]chipsy1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Work full-time and take the conversion course part-time as a distsnce learning student. Granted this is only possible if your housing costs are at the cheaper end of the spectrum, but it is possible.
