Oh I didn't know there was a theme, how did you find out? It would be hard to dress up as something from Charlie and the chocolate factory unless we went as an oompa loompa, and that would be a bit odd.

I don't think I'll be dressing up either. Whatever colour I wear, if anyone asks, I'll say I'm that colour quality street haha :biggrin:

I can't believe in 2 weeks we will be there. I'm so nervous!

Just had a look at the wristband... i am not going to buy as it starts on 12th sep, most people (including me) don't get there until 15th... so 3 nights of stuff is wasted. Maybe know more when we get there?

Freshers week officially starts on the 17th though so all of the important events will be after that date. Its really worth the money as the ball alone is £20! And entry for the other evening events will add up to over the extra £5. Tickets for the ball run out as well so its best to get the wristband and guarantee your entry :smile:

just my advice to you.

I was thinking an oompa loompa haha but if during freshers week most people i meet say they arent going to dress up then i'll be something more subtle like one of the children lol.

Hmmm I'll give it a miss probably, I'm sure we can access most of the freshers stuff without it if it was really important they would have sent out emails

On a side note how do you all know your timetables and stuff? I haven't got mine o_O

you talk to as many people as possible! and make all your new friends.
It's just a week of socialising in different bars and clubs so you know at least 1 group of people

Thanks for the response.

My history of bars/ clubs is... for lack of a better term non-existent. :tongue:

Still a little nervous about being left out of the loop because I don't fancy drinking, but have been advised to go anyway and try to make the most of it.
