I... Kinda got paid for the post grad work. What's up with ireland?

I was paying international student fees. Had I stayed in NI, the cost would have been nominal.

After six months post-grad, it finally hit home that I could make more money as a musician that I ever could as an historian, and I found I didn't relish a career as an academic all that much.

Beat the hell out of working for a living. Smile
