i think im taking everything but the kitchen sink and thats only cos it wont fit in the car lol!

I don't think I am going to be able to move in my room for stuff! I know I should cut back but......I just can't! I am sure after the first term we will be much wiser and much more frugal!

Said like a true professional.......some of us don't have the luxury of two car loads! As some parents aren't prepared to do the journey twice! :frown:

they have been mentioned here. they are not really allowed, but if you can sneak one in it without the cleaners ever knowing then it will be all good

yup doorstop is needed, cos the doors never stay open as theyr fire doors and weigh a ton...but technically theyr not allowed.

can't we just use a jar or something as a doorstop, or are these proper heavy doors that need something a bit more frictiony?

indeed they are...proper heavy doors that need something a bit more frictiony a door stop is usually the only way. and sometimes they dont even work.

Theyre like proper heavy fire door things...and the cleaners use the excuse that if theres ever a fire then they dont want it to spread to your room.
However i'd have exited via my window by then if my life was in danger!
