I was in Sheavyn House, my friends a bit strange, most students want the cheapest things she wanted an en suite costing her £80 odd a week and shes going staying in one of those posh 5 star hotels in New York with her boyfriend at Christmas. I can't even afford a train into Ormskirk!!
Bit too posh for me, Sheavyn House. I had to move one of my students there last year so I've been in, lots of confusing corridors and too far from the town for my liking, although it's only a 15/20 minute bus ride away. I might live in a bargain-basement priced dump but at least I'm only 5 minutes from work so I don't have to get up too early in the mornings (as opposed to all the students who don't get up at all in the mornings...)
Back to the shirt, the thing I'm most interested in is the price. I've not yet renewed my season ticket so I've got that to pay for as well as a new shirt since I won't be in the UK at the end of the year to buy it for myself as a Christmas prezzie! Lots of expense at the same time, not the best idea. This year's away shirt was a bit cheaper than shirts in previous years, probably a result of the controversy over pricing of replica kits. I'm hoping they keep the same price for the new home shirt as well.

Shocked me! Found out the other day that there is a 9 'am' don't know who invented that but I dont like them then I was told that breakfast isn't something you have at 3 after a night out. I dunno where they get their imaginations from some people!
Reet, being the useful person he is, my un named friend said that the new shirt is around £33, I never buy the shirts myself cause Im a scrounging student so I dont know how much they were last year but it gives you some time to start saving up now you know an approximate price!

I was very familiar with 9am, for three years of uni life and two years of college I was in at 9am every day. My fourth year in uni was the best, we had a 10 o'clock start on a Friday! I dunno, arts degrees, waste of time

Since you sleep til the afternoon! That's how they catagorise degrees you know:
BA - Sleep all morning. 2 hours lectures a week
BSc - Sleep half the morning. 10 hours lectures a week.
MEng - Hardcore. Full time lectures, 9am start everyday!

I must have gone to the wrong college, my BA was a pretty busy course, lots of early morning starts, at least one 9-5 normal working day. Students are supposed to get Wednesday afternoon's off for "sport and/or study" but it was just another time for lectures for us. Still, that was polytechnic education, not this part-time study people do nowadays. And I was doing 3 subjects rolled into one degree...

Squeeze me! I've now learned about this 'morning' concept, and I am out of bed actually...with my head down the toilet meaning that I am a Bsc student!
Nah, since I've started Edge Hill I've been in for 9 on Monday, 10 on Thurs and 10 on Friday till either half 3 or 5.

Sorry Fraggle, thats no BA that's clearly an MEng! I'd go back and complain that they gave you the wrong certificate, hehe.
MrsLam you neglected to mention your hours for Tuesday and Wednesday!?
