Cannon Park Shopping Centre

Don't you think Cannon Park could be situated with better shops?
For example:

Poundland
A fancy dress shop
Greggs
Subway
A general off license
Another clothing retailer
A stationary shop

I mean its not very well catered for students or the general public in my opinion. What shops do you think should be in the Cannon Park shopping centre?

Ew why do you want more icky shops?! Haha Tesco is useful (obviously) as are Wilkinsons, Boots, and that Chinese supermarket...but everything else is a bit crap. I hate that New Look is the only clothing shop because I'm really really not a fan of their stuff. It's a bit of a depressing place tbh.

Leamington is the way forward!

Well because they are great shops for people on a budget and then it will cover everything we need and it would make the place a lot more profitable. The only decent shops there are as you've said Tesco, Boots, Iceland and Wilkinsons. Yeh I would prefer another clothing shop, but erm what else to go in there? There's not much of a point in putting something as expensive as River Island or something there.

I'm sorry, but River Island is not expensive. You're right, however, that it wouldn't fit with what's there currently...especially if more bargain basement shops were added.

But what was wrong with Greggs or Subway?

I'm not a fan of either, tbh...

Oh, fair enough.

Btw how has your first year at Warwick been?

Yeah, not half bad! It's been up and down and roundabout and generally a bit manic, but overall pretty good. How about yours?

Yeh same tbh honest!
Took a while to adjust to be honest - esp to the course and independence I think.
My outlook on life has changed a lot since I've come to Warwick.
But it's all been for the better I think.
I'm lot more clued up about my life than before.

You got many exams coming up?

I think it's just reinforced many opinions I already held...along with teach me a couple of life lessons, I suppose. Independence was already there, and I don't think I've even fully adjusted to the course now! Haha, sigh.

I have seven. NOT looking forward to that wee lot, but I refuse to get too stressed over them. So long as I pass all the component exams and thus each module it'll be fine. You?

How is Italian? I'm also learning it at the Language Centre. Some days I love it, some days I loathe it lol. I like the language, I just guess its everything else about the lesson.

Do you go away in your 3rd year? Do you have a rough idea of where you would like to go?

Aw good luck! That's cool - I'm alarmingly relaxed about exams despite not having done any decent work all year.

Yeh I have 5. Not looking forward to the law ones.

What halls did you end up in?

x

I like Italian much more than French. The Italian department itself is brilliant - all the lecturers (apart from one...grrrr...) are amazing and so helpful. French is a bit impersonal, I find - a shame, because I love the language but don't want to study it at uni beyond this year.

I'm actually away next year. The Italian department does things a little differently, haha. I'm going to Urbino in Le Marche region.

Good luck for your exams too

I ended up in Claycroft. You?

See thinking back to the good ol' school days, I think I may have preferred to have taken up French up for leisure rather than Italian.

Yeh my tutor is really nice - Anna - from Milan - short hair? I don't know if she is an actual lecturer.

Oh you go next year? That's so cool! Looking forward to it?

Thanks. Haha I ended up in Claycroft too!

Both are beautiful languages though, so it's all good

I don't know her. She could well be an actual lecturer. I'm not sure how the Language Centre teaches...whether they have their own staff or not.

On the one hand yes, I can't wait. And on the other hand I don't want to leave everything I've established here! I feel quite settled a lot of the time.

Ooooh I totally might know you! Or might not, cos this place is big and I'm rubbish and don't know most people.
