This Must Be Some New Meaning Of The Words...

...'promising student' that I've not encountered before:
A promising college student was killed in an 80mph drink driving smash after she agreed to let a 'show off' friend drive her sports car.
Good lord! What was she studying, advanced naivety?
Phillipa Campbell, 19, was celebrating getting a place on a criminology and sociology course at university…
/facepalm

I suppose it would be considered insensitive to say she evidently failed the practical?

    Taking up a career in grief counselling could be a rewarding move for someone with pathological dislikes, JuliaM.

    Insensitive, but accurate.

    MTG - I'd make a fortune as a grief counsellor. I wouldn't charge much because with the technique I learned from my grandmother (SLAP - "Pull yourself together") I could get through hundreds of cases a day.

    "Taking up a career in grief counselling could be a rewarding move..."

    I doubt it, since I'd probably use the same approach as Leg-Iron...

    Yep, it's the Leg-Iron approach for me.
