      Oh and Leeds is not the 3rd biggest city in england, either by poulation or area, Manchester and birmingham are much bigger.
      Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

        Gig goers!

        Are you coming down on the 7th or on the 8th for the gig?

        I have the next day off so we can take the party back to my house after the gig. Yes, you are getting invited to the post show party. Aren't you lucky.

Personally I'm going for the former as it seems to be a nice place, the idea of a town almost entirely opoulated by uni students is rather appealing and I appreciate the irony. Besides... who the **** want's to go to Warrick?
            Go for Aber. Lowest drop-out rate of any British university. Brilliant place.

              They only don't drop out because they're too far from anywhere to go anywhere else... they're stuck.

              Incidentally, "Warwick" University isn't actually in Warwick. It's in Coventry. 'Nuff said.

                You do know we're only 90 minutes from England by train or car...the coast is kind of concave and we are at the most concave point.

                Now, Haverfordwest or Caernarfon are out of the way...

                      Shrewsbury is a major town!

                      Anyway, its detachment is a positive thing as well. Aber is self-sufficient and has all the amenities of a much, much larger town.

                        It also, surprisingly, has one of the largest student Tory associations in the country (well over 100 members, apparentely)...

                          Are you trying to convince yourself or us?

                          It's only got the lowest drop out rate because no-one can be bothered to travel that far just to drop out.

                            Yeah but we still have annoying pacifists as well. I really can not understand them at all...got a left-wing girl in some of my economics class and she started arguing with the lecturer

                              That's what I said.

                                I don't need convincing. And it really isn't that far to travel ffs! It's less than 2 and a half hours from Manchester if everything goes to plan.
