thought we could have a thread to discuss unis.

just had my first offer from Derby for a music production/music tech course.

thats my first choice I think I’ll have to see how my other offers go.

There’s nothing to say that God isn’t a Yorkshireman, or indeed a whippet.

@ Jesus - You should just hang out for the milk train - there are no penalty fares on trains from micklefield.

But if you get on at Leeds - you cant even get near a train without getting an outward ticket… I’ve thought about getting on the bus as far as Crossgates and chancing it but Karma’s a bastard

No Grants - just loans - you’ll be paying it back for years too - Tony Bloody Blair.

Dads got his cards marked - especially with the catholic switcharoo business.

True, and cross gates is in the middle of f**king nowhere. You wouldn’t want to be stranded there without a donkey.

@Hooch, I think he said he was applying for Leeds, too. Great choice, in fairness …

No disrespect, but i think Hooch might crucify us both if we don’t either shut up or talk about Universities, so whilst you’re here would you mind explaining how come I only got a 2.2 when I prayed every day for 4 years?

I’m doing a degree in Audio and Recording technology at De Montfort in Leicester. The course is pretty good and the facilities are amazing. I’d recommend t to you, Grant, but it depends on how far you want to travel to find a good uni. You might have already looked at it but if not then definitely check out the coures there.

well the mane selling point for derby is its 20 minutes down the road from donnington meaning I can attend the festival in 2010 and have a shower and warm bed to get back to each night.

how rock and roll of me.

also I probably have my priorities wrong

Whereas Manchester usually has at least one band playing every night of the week.

With the Apollo, MEN, 3 x Academies, Club Academy, Night and Day Cafe, Satans Hollow, Roadhouse among the venues to be attending…
