I'm guessing no-ones doing the Viking Raid?! I don't want to miss out on a big event, but I expect everyone will have the intention of getting very drunk so it's not my kind of thing.

No I'm not doing the Viking Raid - not my kind of thing either so don't see the point in doing it, I'm sure that there will be plenty of other people who don't go on it either :smile:

Cool. Is B catered? :smile: I'm going self-catered.

Yeah it's catered, I wanted self-catered but the accommodation system mess meant that there weren't any self-catered left anywhere, grrrr.

Well we already had the flat there (technically belongs to my Dad & Sister), so I thought I might as well save my parents some money by going into it. Plus the accommodation I got offered was overpriced and didn't look great (one of the unite ones.) What about you?

Oh cool - sounds sensible! Would you rather be in halls or don't really care? I've already had my own place in Bristol for (nearly) 3 years.. so been through the can't look after yourself stage.. eating pizza and fish finger sandwiches.. not cleaning for 3 weeks at a time.. now I'm all house proud and cook properly all the time so wouldn't fit in to a student house now haha. Plus I like my own space so accommodation would be a step backwards for me now.

That's awesome! So few schools offer Russian. Oh that's right on campus great if you ever wake up late :tongue: 13:45 for me, and you? How are you getting to Exeter out of interest? I live in a nearby city so will be getting a lift which is lucky because I'm taking way too much stuff :colondollar:
