Helena: Hi Wanda, how is Uni going?
Wanda: Pretty well, but the deadlines are doing my head in, so much fucking work!
Helena: I see you've started swearing like a typical student! My language got really bad last year!
Wanda: Yeah, I remember! I was shocked, but everyone does it here!
Helena: Here too, only with Scottish accent as well, it did take me a few months to get used to it!
Wanda: You're a lot braver than me, I only went about 15 miles to Leeds.
Helena: Yep, you didn't move out of West Yorks even!
Wanda: Well, I prefer it! I can even go and work in the petrol station till 10pm and pop home on the late train if I want to, saves me food money to have a day or two of home cooking, plus it's a lot nicer.
Helena: I know what you mean! I can't be arsed to peel veg and stuff like that, I exist on take aways and convenience micro meals, not good!
Wanda: Have you got I to the famous Scottish deep fried Mars bar craze?
Helena: 🤣I have had one, but Edinburgh is a bit posher than Glasgow where it's more popular. Do like square sausage and cloutie dumpling, though!
Wanda: You'll have to initiate me into these delicacies when I come visit.
Helena: You bet! When can you make it? 
Wanda: Well, I have two days off lectures at the end of next week and I can swap my shifts around if I do it tomorrow. I reckon I can train it up next Thurs if that suits you.
Helena: Should be fine! I have got lectures Friday mind, you could try a bit of sightseeing, perhaps?
Wanda: I would love to see the Castle and the National Art Gallery, have a wee look round too, hen!
Helena: Don't start trying to act all Scottish, you sassenach!
Wanda: Not sure what that means, but you're a Yorkshire lass too and you do it!
Helena: Yes, but I'm an adopted Scottish person now. I'd really like to stay on here, maybe do a PGCE.
Wanda: You a teacher! You haven't got the bloody patience to deal with kids all day!
Helena: Maybe, but it's an idea I've been toying with, convey my passion for history to the young!
Wanda: Hopefully, the young will share your enthusiasm!
Helena: Well, we'll see, still got over a year to decide!
Wanda: Think about it carefully, my sister teaches Geography over in Brighouse, as you know. She's only been doing it 3 years and she feels burnt out at the end of term!
Helena: Oh yeah, forgot about that! Anyway, keep me posted about next weekend, can't wait to see you if you can manage it!
Wanda: Me too, bye Chuck!
Helena: Bye 😗!
Wanda's uni is going pretty well. She studies in Leeds. She's going to visit Helena next Thursday. Helena is considering becoming a history teacher.
