Who is taking a computer? And if you are, are you taking a desktop or a laptop? I was thinking laptop cos I can move it around then. Or are some of you not going to bring them and use the uni's computers?

I'm gonna have to learn to love cooking! I actually hate microwave meals but they're just so convenient :smile:

Do people actually cook proper meals then, or do they just live on beans on toast?

haha, when i was at nottingham my flatmates lived on pasta bakes! there was one girl who cooked a proper meat potatoes and veg meal every night but she was a bit odd.... i tend to cook a proper meal though, lots of tasty things can be rustled up in next to no time.

I'll probably just live off pasta the whole time. It's not that I can't cook but I take ages to do things like chop onions so I don't know if I can be bothered to cook properly all the time.

I haven't even begun to plan what I'm going to take. Probably just "borrow" a lot of the utensils and stuff from the house. Saves me buying them lol.

Righto....i'm slightly confused now!

If i'm sharing a kitchen with 4-5 other people, who all bring, say, a set of pans and such, we'd end up with like 30-odd pans! lol!

I'm really not quite getting this sort of thing yet!

Haha..well on experience, i shared a flat with 5 other people and we all needed our own pans. Personally i would have felt extremely rude asking to use someone elses stuff, plus if a few of you are cooking at the same time then its needed. You dont end up with loads of surplus really, it just pans out (pun intended)
