But usually have to say I live 'near Derby' so people have a clue where it is.So we'll both have to speak in our broad East Midlands accents.
I got on a bus to Burton by accident about a month ago; I wanted to go from the Derby Royal hospital to Derby City Centre and I got on the bus going in the wrong direction! The driver was really nice and didn't charge me extra. Original post by kingjohno
I'm doing Medicine (hopefully), but have received absolutely no reading lists or any other information at all? Should I be worried?
Hey, I'm doing Medicine (hopefully) too
I found this on the Medical Sciences website. I presume therefore that we don't get reading lists, enjoy the freedom!

I'm coming from Corby!
Nobody ever seems to know where Northamptonshire is, so I just end up saying East Midlands. 
I'm really confused... I've been given reading lists for both Victorian and Old English, but I think that I only choose one! 
Not sure if I have to choose now, or read a 'taster' of both. :\

Good ol' geordie-mackem rivalry, I don't even like football or the shipbuilding that supposedly started it, though my dad refused to have anything red in the house for a few years...
