Though saying that, just search on the websitey thing for £60 a week and 5 bedrooms. 5-room houses aren't that common so it's not like you'll have millions to choose from anyway :smile:

Yeh. You are gonna miss the train unless you get on a wagon quickly! :vroam:

They've put back househunting day til a week later this year. It used to be on the first Thursday of the Epiphany Term. I think it is a week later now. But don't quote me on that one.

Just grab a few people who you feel you could stand for 24hours a day for 10weeks at a time... (but no more than 5/6 of you)... the best houses are often only released when the Union days Househunting Day.... but.... as they are now charging landlords to list their properties.... a lot have already given their houses to pesky door knockers to avoid havint to pay the charge...

Damn the DSU and it's massive 100k defecit!

is there anywhere in town that you can get 2 nice 5 bedroom houses for £65 a week each (10ppl obv!)?!
and where the hell is claypath?!

My ex-room mate lives in a house in claypath which is a 5 and another house of 5 next door. There are 8 people all together divided up between the houses.

Lol, yeah the estate agents have released their lists already. Last year they wouldn't release them until after Christmas.

Lol, like what?
Oh and to go back to the earlier debate, the viaduct is NOT far away!!! I live there it takes me 10-15 minutes tops to get to lectures (depending on if I have to go through town at lunchtime when there are people EVERYWHERE!) and 10 minutes to get into college (quicker if I go up windy gap)
And I am a slow walker.

I thought 5-roomers were most common? Anyway, everyone stop slagging off DSU! We need the money. And it's good that we're pushing back housing week, I wish it was at the start of Easter - it's so hard choosing people to live with after only having known them for 2 and a half months...
