but, ehrrr... a lot of members are under-aged, and some are totally absent, so it might be a lot cheaper actually.

Ok, is there a point left to this thread?

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

If this thread didn't exist, I would be dead now. The humour contained within these sacred pages has enabled me to struggle on through this world of piss and vinegar. Thankyou thread, thankyou.

Here's something more then. For the second time in the past few weeks, the college bus has failed to turn up, leaving myself and my associates to stand about in sub-zero temperatures, in the vain hope that it will arrive. Suffice to say, we soon got pissed off and went home, where I am now.
So there.

You think if teh loan was that big I'd be working for the uni as well as studying there? I lose valuable drinking and pool time every day! (and time for my c/w of course... :nervous: )

I might just afford a Caley Swally (served in the Caley union, all four sq. feet of it)...

I'm at Bristol University.  My loan wasn't even enough to cover the accommodation fees...

But I've been 18 since July 13th, and I've been at Uni for over 3 weeks, and I've not touched a drop of alcohol.  Reason: I just don't see the point.

Very funny.

It's amazing how far money goes at Uni when you don't go to pubs or nightclubs.

Depends on why you're at University.

Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

Of course not.  I'm going to Uni so that I've got some peace and quiet away from my parents so I can work on Descent 4.

Alcohol would get in the way of that.  Besides, I tend to do stupid things without the assistance of excessive amounts of beer...
