Time to Celebrate

Post by Pandabean » Wed Jun 13, 2007 4:01 pm

Sorry for the unrelated thread but I have just got back from Heriot Watt in Edinburgh and I was told this morning by a friend that my final degree result is out.

I know have an Upper Second [2:1] Class BSc(Hons) in Geology & Petroleum Geology.

I am over the moon :D [5 cups] [5 cups] [5 cups] [5 cups] [5 cups] [5 cups] [5 cups]

Congratualtions, Andy.

It seems you are a man passionate about digging - professionally in the ground and passionately in the archives. :wink:

Well done \:D/
