Hehe, of course I'll buy him one :biggrin:

I might just have to give you the money for it though, MB, I'm not really a drinker.

Ahem

forgot to introduce myself!

My name's Dave and I'll be off to Kings later next month bar any serious accidents to study natural sciences.

I'm really just working far too much right now and not doing much else with my summer apart from spending time down the pub or out in town.

Should probably look at my reading list but I've noticed across the top is written (and I quote) "Suggested Reading List".

I think that sums up my attitude to non-compulsory work quite well really.

Oh, and Ticki, I think I met you when I went down to Cam for the open day(s). I stayed in Sidney accomodation but am ashamed to admit I ended up applying to Kings :redface:

Hey Dave, I'm Amy and I'm off to King's too to study Classics. Just thought I'd say hi! Have you been sent any stuff yet? They sent me a letter, but it didn't say alot in it. Is anyone else here going to King's or studying 4-year Classics?

I think everything in Cambridge is suggested. Don't take the word so literally. Anything that is suggested you'll have to read at least 50% of it. (That's if you do things like Biology and Arts subjects)

U avin' a laff?

It's not like I could get through much of it even if I wanted to what with work and a holiday coming up. I figure I'll just start as I mean to go on work-wise - that way I won't create false impressions with the powers that be. :redface:
