    Hoping they will reveal The Rolling Stones are playing, not looking likely though. :awesome:

    Don't really mind tbh, as long as it's not something really boring or too corny. Should be a good week regardless of whether we get to watch some guy swallowing bottles of bleach or not.

    Maybe if The Who are unavailable they'll give The Rolling Stones a call

    Yeah it should be fun regardless, what with new people and places etc

    Woo for t'north! (though ive been told i sound like a southerner, most of my family come from kent so i learnt to speak quite posh by hull standards, but still...)

    Edit: Ironicly, the only phrase i can say in a convincing enough scottish accent is "ya eenglish pigs!", so i can see where that could go horribly wrong...

    Does anyone know if we need to have Freshers passes, and how to get them? We won't get our matriculation cards until Monday or so

    Who's all going out on the first night?
