Popped into school for a bit, and spoke to my friend who took it and he didn't seem too happy with how it went, hope you're feeling more confident about it than that! 

(04 Jun 2015, 11:48 am)Dan Haha, not really. The general consensus on Twitter was that the paper was really difficult.

The bad thing about Business Studies papers is that they're all worth quite a few marks - ranging from 6 to 15 from the outset and throughout.

My friend answered the first question with '8', but the rest of us and the majority of Twitter users got '1.45%'. Fair to say she's a little disappointed, because it can often be a case of one question being the difference between a grade in Business.

(06 Jun 2015, 3:26 am)Adam I persuaded my uni friends to come up to the mighty homeland of Eighton Banks for a night. I met them at Gateshead Interchange at 5pm, then got the X25 to Eighton Banks where we had a fantastic meal at The Waggon. Afterwards, we went to mine for a quick drink and introduced my friends to my family, before heading to the Quarryman's and then town afterwards, having just got back home not so long ago.

They all seemed to enjoy it, which is a relief as I felt a lot if pressure to make tonight a success

(06 Jun 2015, 9:29 pm)tyresmoke Well I've just watched the Champions League final, bit flat in the first half with Barca scoring so early but as soon as Juve scored in 2nd half it was game on from then on. Winning £95 helped of course! Thanks to Neymar's 97th minute goal...

(07 Jun 2015, 7:56 am)tyresmoke No the ticket ballot happened months ago before I even knew when my holidays were, never mind where I would go. Could definitely be up for going to next years though lol

(06 Jun 2015, 7:48 pm)Adam Further to this, I've been speaking to them today and all six of them who came said they enjoyed it. One friend said Gateshead was "awesome (which nobody's ever said before)", whilst a lot of them said my family were lovely and welcoming. Equally, my parents said they seem to be a nice bunch of people. It was different, but a good different.

I think they may possibly take the gong for the furthest travelled punters to The Quarryman's, with three of them who came along originally coming from Cambridge, South Wales and Northern Ireland respectively.

They particularly admired the view after we got off the X25 at the bottom of Sandy Lane, where you can look down onto the Angel and up the Silver Hills. The girls thought it looked like something from The Sound of Music so were singing various songs from the musical whilst walking up to The Waggon.

I feel as if the night was an enjoyable success and a right good laugh, so takes a weight off my shoulders knowing that I sort of masterminded the whole thing
