as did I

and controlled drugs are legal in the uk, just their storage and prescription is laid down by the controlled drugs act with assorted amendments....

just a minor niggle :)


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I passed but I disagree on a few:

They say it's illegal to drive a vehicle while using a mobile phone. Well it isn't - you can do so as long as you use it hand's-free.

I thought controlled drugs were legal on prescription - that being the control mechanism .... but maybe I don't know what they mean by the term.

.... and Statutory Maternity Leave is 52 weeks - not 26 ..... not that they even gave the possibility of selecting the right answer
