Merci! It’s from my wedding, and the expression is silly so why not use it

Haha I don’t mind at all! But yeah, had a great academic time (plus was nice to spend a year in Oxford without being driven mad) there which set me up well for my research degree. Plus, pubs in Oxford were (and are) superb

I did my Masters there; great uni! Crucially was cheaper than Oxford itself as well.

It’s part of the curriculum here and has been so for decades; the quote is misleading.

It’s been part of the curriculum for decades; I learned about it in the early 2000s and it’s very much part of it now. It’s a misleading headline.

I learned it in 2002; very much part of the curriculum.

news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/7582004.... The methodology seems a little off; I was taught it in the early 2000s and it’s definitely still part of the mandatory history curriculum.

If it’s news that Exeter will start doing glass recycling pickups, then sign me up

Have to say this isn’t true; we did the Troubles, Irish independence, Vietnam, WWI and II, the latter Cold War, the rise of Hitler, Israel/Palestine and many more elements.
