"McDonalds"

In the McDonalds near me, it says it has wireless broadband there, does this mean i could link a ds up to it, and what would it be able to do?

They showed you the rooms? Fools...

I went down on the Tuesday, stayed the night in the college, and came back on the wednesday after some subject talks.

I would have thought it was great if I hadn't seen the rooms. Honestly, it was tiny, threadbare, with manky windows and 0 space. Then you open the massive heavy thick firedoors and squeeze into a coridoor where you have to share 2 bathrooms with 12 other people. No thanks. I'm going to Sussex instead, much nicer, I think.

I thought Durham as a place was great, and the course was great, and the bar + everything else was great, but I just wouldn't want to live in that place for a year.

I went on the Tuesday (loved the 5hr journey there and back... :/). So you didn't take the offer? I thought it was alright, and the course was fantastic, so that alone was enough to convince me.

Chipple, you're going to Collingwood? I went to visit it, but I found the entire place intermindably dull. I couldn't stand living in those tiny box rooms with the massive heavy fire doors and tiny coridoors for an entire year. Did you go to the open day a month or so ago? Maybe I saw you there and never realised! WEIRD.

I'm off to Uni next year, so buses and/or trains are a dead cert. (though Collingwood is right next to the Science Depart. at Durham :D). Still, I think I'll be setting aside some money, come september.

Stupid Sony, why won't they leave me alone?

It is. It all depends on lifestyles and uses. I'll be hopping on the train a lot mroe often next year, so it'll be a good break from googley eyes after a 4 hour stint on a book. Chuck a few TV episodes of Family Guy or whatever and the journeys are sorted.

Mercury I hear is better.

This is true, but movies on the fly are tempting. Hmm.

It takes care of music. :) So basically, if I were to get a PSP, I'd use it for Games, and perhaps movies (though that's an uncertainty). Still, it looks fantastic, and I like the look of Lumins (or whatver it's called, I forget).

Veeeeery tempting indeed.

"Probably"?

Like Starbucks, they probably charge for the privilege.
