Ah that's brilliant thanks I really do love maths so I don't think I'll be dropping it!

Ooh, I don't know...I'm pretty sure at least Manchester and Liverpool are pretty high!

And yaaaay! I thought I wasn't going to find another Archaeology type person! Now for people going for St. John's....I may be being blind but they just don't seem to exist!
