Well done you! I have entered every comp I can find for this and still no joy, hopefully next year will be my year!!
same here, but I haven't won any tickets. I went last year and really enjoyed it, but I think the tickets are too expensive.

Just having a laugh at the competitions to win tickets to see Sean Connery at a special screening of The Man Who Would Be King. The Bank of Scotland were giving away free tickets for this event one day last week all you had to do was go up to the Bof S Head Office at the Mound and show your Bank of Scotland Account Card to get two tickets. I am a Bank of Scotland cardholder but have seen the film and most Edinburgh residents have seen "Big Tam" in the flesh more times than they have had hot dinners!! :rolleyes:

Nice of Andrews and Bevvy to post the comps anyway for some who may be interested.

Can anyone help me? When you do a CV, for the education section, do you put date you finished your degree or the date you attended to do the degree so basically date of attendance or how long it took to finish it?

Isn't it the date you got your qualification? i.e. the date on your certificate?

Certainly on any CV of mine and those I see coming in for posts, it's usually laid out

EDUCATION

Blah School 1989-1995
A levels : History A; Maths B etc

University of Blah Blah 1995-1999

LLB (Hons) - 2:1

then any postgrad etc

Hope that helps?

I put the date of attendance on mine, so for example my CV reads Sept 1997 - July 2001. If you just say when you finished, it doesn't indicate how long the course was. I use the same format for my employment history
