No it is not staffroom gossip.

The owner of ET has a number of long and short term projects.

One short term project is to open a high school. The ''ET University'' project is a bit more long term.

Does it threaten you dmb?

ET have got the marketing mix right.

ET are swallowing up little schools left right and centre.

Be afraid DMB be very afraid.

What happened to Nazif's plan to open an English Fast university? I heard (maybe 8 or more years ago) that he'd bought the land for it. He already had the school for "gifted" students. What became of the plan to take over the world with EF?

oh I'm sure 31 is right in with the owner and knows all of his plans. Perhaps it was pillow talk. I imagine our owner consults with him first. I don't think you need to be afraid dmb, but if there were a university 31 would not be on the hiring list.

FGT, are you talking about yeni ufuklar? I saw a stand in the Metro yesterday. I dıdn't read it very careful but the name of it was Yeni Ufuklar and it is an educational establishment. I don't know if Nazif is involved though.

Molly is annoyed about the ET University plans getting out only because she knows that tefl teachers in Ist will rip the piss out ET. Still many of them will be working for ET by then.

Molly

When I was buying my Pocket Learner`s Dictionary I saw a Dictionary of Idioms. What you do is you look up ''dog'' for example and you get idioms like:

work like a dog
it`s a dog`s life
in the doghouse
a dog eat dog world

Why don`t you get yourself one and then you could look up idioms like take the mick. Or are you taking the mick by pretending you don`t know what it means.
