gollark: The English-y GCSEs are very annoying. I did better in Ancient Greek and Latin than English on the mock things (literature/language were just done as one exam for some reason).
gollark: Anyway, I did decently on my mock exam stuff, so if they use those as my actual grades I should be okay.
gollark: I mean, it's an... underground railway network, if a small one.
gollark: We don't really get those here.
gollark: It's not called a subway locally.
