Because prices are rocketing, so you could make a lot of money, in theory.

I know, I don't really understand either. Mind you that happens to me as soon as anyone puts a £ infront of a number lol.

Thanks nooni! I quit before my prelims as well, brilliant timing

What's everyone up to tonight? I'm extremely bored from studying chem all ruddy day - lets play a game or summat.

But what do you do with it? You just buy it...and then what? Is anyone allowed to buy it?

Hang on to it as prices rise, then sell it off at a profit.

I think this is secretly the sort of stuff discussed in Supervisions (?).

*slowly turning into rpotter*

I'm not only bored now, but really really hungry... And there's no food in the house except a Dairy Milk variety park that I seem to be slowly munching my way through.

I should sleep. It's nearly 2.30 here.

Oh god... I *may* have got hideously drunk on cocktails last night and told a student I was at Oxford

To be fair the first question he asked me was 'what college are you at?' and instead of going 'Oh no, actually I'm doing my A-Levels this year and then hopefully going to Cambridge' the correct answer was apparently 'Oriel.' And then he gave me some champagne so I had to stay and have a long conversation about what I study (medicine), what year I was in (first), when my collections finished (Friday), and where I was from (errr.... Cambridge, actually....)

Then I pulled him which is very unlike me and now I'm all embarrassed and hungover

Unless there is a time difference between london and lancashire i am guessing your not in England. Where are you my dear?

Am going to sleep. Night.

So you live in Oxford and are going to Cambridge in October, but he thought you live in Cambridge and are studying at Oxford? Confusing.

Oh well, at least you pulled!

That's the one. Just saw all the friends I was out with last night (my hockey team, they're all about 30) and got the piss ripped out of me for 2 hours.
Yeah, he was a PPE student at my mum's old college... Incestuous

Friendlyneutron: totally read that wrong and thought you had got drunk with your maths tutor. I was thinking he/she sounded very cool! I thought you Scots were supposed to be living a 'monastic lifestyle'... you could jeopardise your entire future you know young lady...
