Get a cab! It's worth £6 to not have to chug across town and be late..

If any of you were the one who accidentally shoved her prospectus in my face as I was walking into the buttery...we've met! :wink:

Otherwise, I hope you've all been having a good day!

Oh yeah, good point about hayfever actually. I'm going to eat local honey as much as I can and see if it makes the suffering any less!

Aawh, that wasn't meeeee. But yeah, had a really good day, love ittt! :smile:

Woohoooo! Glad you enjoyed it -- shame you weren't here 2 days ago, though, when there was less fog and more absolutely amazing sunshine!

I've just about overcome my bizarre allergy to honey (which was attributed to hayfever), so am hoping this summer won't be too unbearable!

I knowww, sod's law, eh!? Of all the days to be foggy! We couldn't see half the place, but it's still lurverlly.

Allergic to honey!? Oh noo. Honey is lovely! I'm yet to find any antihistamine which actually works for me so summer is usually helll. I managed to avoid the worst last year though because I was abroad for a while.

hey everyone-

got an offer for economics here from the pool, am so pleased i ended up here! really enjoyed the open day on the 13th, it made me feel so much more comfortable about the college and people there!

I was really worried that there would be an all-girl boarding school thing going on but everyone I met was not like that at all!

Am new to TSR because someone I met at the college said that there was an active newnham thread on here :smile:

please excuse me though if my technological skill on here leaves somewhat to be desired!
