I got offered John Foster but I turned it down because it was going to cost £5,700 for 30 weeks -_-

Mary Gee, but I've just been offered Gilbert Murray Stamford today and I'm not sure if I should take it. It'll cost an extra £1,000 but it is a premium single and it is catered

Oooo, nice! Is Leicester generally an active and vibrant city to live in?

Well I certainly think so! It's also a pretty relaxed place too though, not too much hustle and bustle

Im doing history at leicester too! So excited. I will be staying in John Foster Hall. Has anyone heard anything about a reading list or anything like that? Most of my friends at other unis have been given stuff to do over the holidays but I've had nothing...
