I live in Lincoln and have all my life so I know a bit of the student life! From friends that go to Lincoln, it has something to suit everyone. From my experience, Lincoln has a busy nightlife but there are some other beautiful areas where it's lovely and chilled.
i know there are a fair few clubbing events in the evening, however there is also kids in glass houses playing one evening which as far as i know are more alternative/punk music, and there is also a 'big quiz' one night too. theres a ghost walk early evening one night too which i am so going to. as for daytime stuff there are the sports and societies fayres, theres bowling one day, an all day trip to alton towers and a treasure hunt one day too. i cant remember off the top of my head what the exact schedule is though. i need to find out if its possible to pay just for individual events rather than buying a wristband, because like your friend i dont mind the occasional party/club thing but i prefer chilled settings too hopefully i will find some people to hang out with rather than going to a few of those dj events XD
I'm really not into anything related to drinking or clubbing. I'd just prefer to see the societies, meet people around accommodation and lectures. Perhaps a few mild afternoon events, I'm not the most social and fresher's week has me worried as it seems to be based around drinking and clubbing.

Hey in the exact same boat. Don't mind one night out but with starting uni u wanna get to know people! Dancing with blaring music doesn't sound easy trying to get to know people . Meeting with people on bars or lil events out sounds great what u studying ?

I'm studying media production so undecided about tickets for freshers. May buy one for one night out but the majority of freshers I'd rather go bars or get to know each other in our new flats :P ill see you there and we can catch a drink ?
hi, same hear, id expect some events to be pay on door for extra cost, thats if they arnt already full, they gotta make money right? but im the similar sitch, not mad on dj's :P prefer the places slightly more mellowed, :P
Hey people I'm glad to see there are other people who are interested in meeting people Freshers Week than just going clubbing. I think I'm going to buy tickets on the door so I can be flexible

Exactly. There's no way of getting to know ppl when dancing. Anyway there will be so many chances to go out :P

oh cool i might see you around then! i think a lot of film and tv and media production stuff happens in the same building yeah i got the gold wristband thinking that everyone would just be going to all the events but i have seen loads of people saying they arent going to some stuff. but eh, im not committing myself to going anywhere even if i did pay for it XD yeah i'd be up for a drink! i cant remember if i asked what accommodation are you staying in?

I got the gold wristband too but I intend to go with the flow and see what's happening then decide on the best option don't worry there's plenty of people going out, yet others intend to go into town so there's loads of options!!

exactly what i thought, at least with the wristband i have the option of whether to go to events or not depending what others are doing what are you studying?
im staying in courts. the 23rd you mean? i'd probably need to be getting to know my flatmates too but maybe i'll come and join you at some point

That was my logic too but I just kinda hope it doesn't turn out a waste! I'm doing law and criminology, yourself?
awesome! yeah same here, i really dont do enough exercise at the moment XD i will have to have a proper look at the sports and societies fayres but i'm quite interested in surfing or climbing i think
