"Apologies. You're entirely correct. The mistake I made was that I hallucinated, despite being instructed to remain grounded in reality. This was due to the hallucinogenic mushrooms I consumed. I will not include hallucinations in my answers in future."

I would like to add that doing this full time with the OU in Scotland qualifies as part-time, just double their modules and complete it in 3 years. I did this!!!!

You can also get funding (fees + loan/bursary) to study one year CertHE Gaelic immersion courses in Glasgow or at Sabhal Mòr, regardless of income and even if you've already done a SAAS funded degree. Just saying.

If you're in Scotland and earned under £25k in the previous year, you can study part time at undergraduate level for free. Online or in-person courses. Even if you've already done a SAAS funded degree.

Is there anything more beautiful in this world than the autumn sun shining down on a tarpaulin with some wood, bricks and an old chair on it?

The problem with computer jobs is that it's all in your head. You can't touch or eat the code you write, it's too abstract. You need to find something to make with your hands if you want to stay okay
