im not a going out person but if i did i think the friends i'd make would allow me to crash at theirs but i doubt ill go out much, i have a jog to think about. how long is it going to take you to get to uni everyday?

About 10 minutes on the train, maybe another 15 walking to the uni. So under half an hour, if there are no delays :rant:

Wow that must be going out of your way.

Lucky? Oh, well I guess I am. :smile:

However, Rugby is pretty amazing at delaying trains. They've gotten a bit better over the last year though.

You were quite lucky too! 9.20! My school started lessons at 8.50.

I do feel a bit ill on trains but it's never as bad as it is in a car. I don't know why.
I don't feel great on pendolino trains though (there's something about them that makes them tilt so it affects the balance of fluid in my ears).

My school started at 8:30 but i didnt have to go in till 2nd lesson most days and i left at 1:00. it was one of the perks of having my timetable. and atleast thats good. it wouldnt be good arriving at Cov train station and seeing someone being sick lool :biggrin:
