I reckon you could still try and get a place for it....the letter said that the london one is normally over-subscribed....didn't mention about the others though

Wonderful, isn't it? There's a song in Italian called "Vivo Per Lei", which I really love :biggrin:

i have my (2nd) test on the 28th (day after the freshers party :eek:

).
failed on a really stupid thing last time - stopped too late at traffic lights so i was over the line :mad:

i just figured i'll need to be able to drive when i'm an architect. when i did my work experience, all the architects spenta a lot of time driving around between sites (at ridiculous speeds)

Oooh, even better. If you go to www.cusu.cam.ac.uk you get "redirecting to the new home of CUSU online..." and then it doesn't redirect you. I mean, FFS. You have the brainiest people in the McCountry and they can't put a bloody website together.

Have just been looking at the CUSU site myself and dl'd the online Freshers Guide. Has a short list of essential stuff you should take. Probably 90% of it wasn't on the really long list I've already written, lol. So now it's a huuuge list. Does everybody else have a documented 'immunisation history'?! Maybe I can get it from my doctor? Oh well I'm not planning on falling ill at uni. :smile:
