Slash ft Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators! They have done 3 albums together now and they are all absolute bangers, in my incredibly biased opinion. And Alter Bridge, their latest album is beautiful. Essentially, I would recommend anything with Myles Kennedy in it!- BorgP95

Just found out that I managed to convert my VS last week into a TC!! Absolutely over the moon, can't wait to get started and just wanted to say thanks to everyone on this thread. The amount of helpful advice has been incredible and it was definitely a comfort to be able to come here and 'be...- BorgP95

Gowling WLG VC Application Question
I vaguely remember being told that we should know within a couple weeks of the end of the scheme - but that could be me making it up with wishful thinking! I hope we don't have to wait until after the summer though...- BorgP95

I had a sad PFO hidden in my junk folder a couple of weeks ago :( Given that you haven't heard back yet, you're probably still in with a chance! Good luck :D- BorgP95

I've been trying to find out about this as well but still have no idea! I'm hoping they might give us a rough indication in an email again, like they did for the first AC- BorgP95

WBD VI invite! :D Have to say I'm a bit nervous about potentially having to attend an AC in person if I am successful. I don't live in mainland UK and, even though I would have no issues getting there, I would be faced with certain restrictions when returning home. I wonder if they will...- BorgP95

Gowling WLG VC Application Question
No, not yet. I'm guessing it takes a little while to sort out everyone's allocations! Well that's great news for us then! :D I'm really hoping to land an offer with Gowling - they have been top of my list since day 1. Good luck on which ever scheme you land on - hopefully we'll get some...- BorgP95

Gowling WLG VC Application Question
I vaguely remember reading somewhere that there are double the number of vacation scheme placements than there are training contracts. So I'm presuming anywhere from 40-50% of us on the schemes will be offered a TC. Gowling has always said that they hire most trainees from the schemes but I know...- BorgP95

I did the MA Law (GDL equivalent) online last year full time whilst working full time in a demanding role in parliament. Overall, it worked - I came away with good grades, built a good reputation for myself at work and have no debt. But, it was brutal. You will no longer have a life. My...- BorgP95

I see most people are suggesting a smartphone, so I will offer the opposite view! I did mine on my PC as I trust the receptivity of my mouse and spacebar far more than I trust the touchscreen of my phone. I'm not sure if they are adapted depending on which device you are using but it definitely...- BorgP95
