Glutton for punishment - or just for the subsidised beer in the Union? You decide!

Talking of rooms, you'll be having to think of accommo for next year I'm guessing.


Ah - the joys of living at home for Uni! No messing about with deposits, landlords, or rising damp for me!

Im on campus at the moment, and will be next year. All I have to worry about is the poerters...they remeber me from first year and most of the memories aren't good!

P.S. Im fairly sure that those smilies summarise what I remeber of my time here!

A week can be from £40 to £60, I'm looking at the lower end of that range but I have seen a house for £36 a week! Bomb, I know how you feel I can't remember Friday night- too much Stella
