It is quite far, takes about 15 - 20 mins in a bus (depending on traffic). Walking I've no idea, buses are cheap and frequent so I use them if I have to go into town.

Why won't they let you switch? And is it just Nottingham that you want to do eng/phil at, or everywhere?

Miles. It's not even close to Nottingham, it's actually nearer Loughborough. But they've got a Uni of their own already.

Nah, Bristol will be my firm, and Nottingham is only really going down as insurance because it's my only ABB offer, though I don't like the idea of being out of a city. I want, really, to be smack-bang in the middle of one.

Rubbish. It's about a mile or a mile and a half from the city centre, probably 35-40 minutes' walk, or 10-15 minutes on a bus.

Sutton Bonington Campus, on the other hand, is 11 or 12 miles away and quite close to Loughborough, but that's only for students doing agricultural-related degrees.
I just assumed FyreFight was taking the piss.

oh, I assumed he was a bit thick... but there you go. I suppose it is quite hard to convey sarcasm through the medium of text though.

From campus it's 10 mins on the bus which are very frequent. Or worth getting a taxi if there are 3 or more of you. You can walk it in 30 minutes from the side of campus which is closer to town. It's close enough to go out, go shopping etc whenever you want but far enough away that you get grass and trees on campus!
