Today I found out unless I have retake at the end of my LPC in 16 weeks I am due to finish!

I have a confession to make just under five months ago when I started the LPC I believed that it was longer than the GDL. I have since been proved wrong, it turns out to be about the same length the result is that I'm just realizing how many law firms I will have to apply to over the next few weeks!

The economic situation in the United Kingdom is terrible I am more ready hearing about law firms laying people off and in this job market I now find myself feeling the breach. The other night I talked with a French girl who was a fully trained lawyer. For the last two years she has been a paralegal and now even she can't and you would not believe that if you met her.

For starters she is intelligent and I believe in a normal market she would be snapped up immediately.however we don't live in normal times companies rapidly go to the wall without warning, for every Woolworths I suspect there will be a Lehman Brothers a company that looked sound and stable before it is engulfed by lack of credit.

After watching the Prime Minister atempt his second bail out of the banks I can only hope things get back to. I'm glad my parents don't have a mortgage and that would pretty well off at some measure I can have some true independence after the LPC finishes
