My father is a scouser, so it was pretty standard up until secondary school, I voice audiobooks etc now so I can show you exactly:

No I don't, I have done, I'd rather not disclose, 5ft 5" and 40-32-40



Hehe

Sorry about that. :tongue:

Sounds good. :wink:
How, if at all, can we prevent the use of nuclear bombs, chemical weapons and biologocal weapons by small groups of terrorists?

Interesting.... The sound quality is good, what did you use to record it? (Completely unrelated, I know, I'm sorry. :P)

I'm probably going to a private university (via scholarship, etc.) so I'm finding this thread most fascinating.

By boarder I guess you mean boarding school. What's that like? Is it like university or do you actually have curfews like in the movies?

Never knew anyone who goes to one so I'm clueless!
Do you have a room mate?
Was gonna ask if you guys played soggy biscuit when bored but you're a girl..... How's the grass there?

I'm going to have to agree with you and say that the stereotypes are very far from the reality at boarding school, majority of people are really humble and down to earth, then again you have nasty pretentious people everywhere!
Do you also like boarding or wish you went to state school?

I don't know what uni is like, but yes we have curfew, 10pm for senior girls. I'm not sure about middle/lower school girls, or the boys:smile:

Very much agreed! I love boarding, it's amazing, and I wish I'd had the friendships people make in state schools (more people etc) and I wish I was around the less capitalistic, right-wing-ness of private, but I do like my school alot:smile:

Wouldn't advise googling it tbh, that's good, I like to think grass quality is closely linked to the quality of the institution

I shan't, and I agree
Intetesting.... would you describe yoyourself as introverted It's just I would describe myself that way and I'm concerned about having a room mate.

Seperate question: what are the facilities like? Is there a TV?
