I always had a vague notion that those figures only applied to those that got jobs as part of a graduate scheme or some such.
Good luck with it all Pig. It sounds like a good move.
As for me, I graduated in June, moved to Manchester on a whim in October, and quit my horrific admin job last week before I commited the act of self-harm with a stapler and a few spare paperclips. I'm now sponging off my dad, and preoccupied with silly tendentious arguments about ethics. Tomorrow I have to dress up as Mr Beaver from
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe in front of a class of 10 year olds. It's all for the PGCE, folks. Such is the life of your resident scapegoat, English graduate, failed poet and frustrated romantic.
