Awesome teachers
Teachers have been getting a right kicking recently and it's not fair. So, let's hear it for the teachers who've inspired you, made you laugh, or helped you to make massive explosions in the chemistry lab. (Thanks to Godwin's Lawyer for the suggestion)

I have to take issue a little bit with your post.
I did once start a Physics degree and, while not my cup of tea due to maths overload and personal issues, it could be interesting. Also, it would likely lead to a chance of grabbing a "graduate" job as well as a job related to Physics. So, I wouldn't call a Physics degree "bollocks".
That said, I agree with the sentiment that you should do what makes you happy and if you can find a subject you enjoy studying then do it. Personally, my equivalent to your choice came when a German teacher at colleage suggested I take it up as an A-Level, since not many people had a GCSE, but I'd already commited to the three sciences and Maths. I should have dropped Maths and done German.
Still, I hope to move to another country this year an am busy learning the language -- so education never stops.
