Yes, I'm very behind on it though, like shamefully behind! :s I'll need to catch up before I move in I think.

I'm not a big drinker and I was wondering if any of you were the same? Does anyone know of any fresher events other than clubbing/drinking?

I don't drink at all really, glad I've found a couple of other people in a similar situation! :smile:

I want to go out and drink for freshers but don't know what to do about tickets and wristbands, my sister advised me not to buy any but everyone seems to be buying a ticket or wristband of some kind. Seems stupid to me because you don't know if your flat mates will be going yet, but I don't want to be left out

Haven't really heard anything back from accommodations so not too sure yet, although I might move in on the 17th.
I'm doing Mechanical Engineering :smile:
