Don't want to shatter your dream, but two of my best friends did this. A house of 6, my mate and his girlfriend (said mates) they were solid as a rock and got on great. We all moved in... they split up. I had to move room so she could be further away from him and on another floor.

I hope this situation doesnt arrise, i dont think it will, but you never know whats round the corner! Either way it should be a rocking year :)
 
Not going! However I will be starting my apprenticeship on 10th September! Similar sort of thing I guess, except I will be commuting from home to the academy in my company van which won't cost me a penny... oh and I get paid to go rather than it costing me... and I have a job at the end of 2 years. So actually it's not really the same, it's better! :p . Not on basic wage even either, it's £12k/year for 30weeks, up to £17k/year then and then it goes to £22k/year until the end of the 2 years when it goes up again ("up to" £29k/year).

Sorry mate! I doubt it will happen and hope it doesn't. I feel bad for mentioning it. He was paranoid about everything in their relationship which was the reason.
 
Coventry, 22nd september, Starting to hit me... I said my good bye to my mother today as she left to Japan, (coming back evening of the 22nd)

Also, is it possible to have 2 student bank accounts? as HSBC has been stingy and havnt given me anything.

I'm back (third and final year) and moved into my new house on the 1ST.

But there is only one other housemate here at the moment - and shes at her boyfriends tonight.

God its a tad lonely.

Although I am a lot happier in this house, Room about 3 times the size, an actual living room with nice furniture and a decked out kitchen, Sky TV, 10MB interwebs and living with only 3 other people (all being female).

No you're only allowed 1 student account.

HSBC seemed to be purposely dissuading students to join them it seems. I personally can't fault them though, they never charge me for breaking my overdraft limit, even in excess of £300.

Oh, And i take it they will find out if i *accidentally* make another?
 
Freshers starts on the 1st October so I think I'll be moving back to Nottingham around the 23rd. Gives me enough time to unpack, and to pickup anything I'll need for the house/uni.
