eeeks i had better hurry up and get my theory done as there is a 6 week wait till you can do your exam (driving)

still no info from the uni about our courses... i guess we will get them after our results maybe?

The driving test date varies between test centres. As far as I know (which is a bit, when dad is a motorbike instructor), you only have to wait a couple of weeks between theory and practical - if you can get the test date. When I get to know the terrain down there, I might decide to take my bike with me for getting between Storthes and the Uni, but thats just me being a daft git who needs major cardio fitness work.

I think all of the course stuff will be sent out when the Uni actually knows we are going there (results day) with stuff about accomodation and everything else.

we are friends with an instructor from BSM, im doing an intensive course and apparently the wait for the are I live in is 6 weeks grrr.

I would only go to uni on my motorbike if I got a new one lol. Mine is an old Trials (jailing). I would prefer to take test aswell for it rather than just my CBT lol.

I may have a car lined up anyway, found out someone up the road is selling their mini cooper which is done up and had a recon. With a bit of luck I should get it as its the only car I wan't lol.

Phone up the DSA - see what the dates on the cancellations are :smile:

For the bike, get through your test ASAP because the prices go up all the time and, thanks to Brussels, its going to get waaaaaaay harder.

Mini? If you get it and need any work doing on it, give me a yell - dad and I rebuilt two of them! (one 1986, one 1964) :biggrin:

yea, ive been wondering why huddersfield doesnt have a forum. im sure well get one. i have no idea how to do that. but im sure we will. lol

unfortunatly i have to do my foundation year first. But after completing that ill probably be going on to electrical. but obviously allot can change over they year. so we will have to see.

Are you going to be living at strothes hall?
