    Still no visit from my co-op visitor. Almost finished my placement (around 8 weeks left). He was supposed to but cancelled. I'm guessing I should email him?

    mine was up during the week... went exactly like this:

    how are you?
    are you enjoying it?
    are you doing anything interesting?
    whats the fastest way back to the motorway?


    gas man... talked quickly about the FYP and how to copy and paste the coop report.

    Im not any better off having spoken to him, so i dont think a visit is necessary unless youre not enjoying it?

    Has anyone gotten their presidents letters yet for last semester?
    Usually arrived by now just wondering if they are a bit late for final year students

    When do they send those out? :o I've never gotten one but that was my final semester and I broke my previous QCA record with a 3.6 so I was hoping I'd finally get a letter or I dunno a postcard or something at least. :p

    My friend got his letter based off his first semester QCA in about Week 6 of semester two.

    So try and base it off that, I guess.

    Should get one for a semester QCA above 3.5
    Never understood the timings of them at all, got a christmas one in May and a Summer one in July the same year, maybe it just depends how busy Don is writing them? :pac: Apply for the postcard anyways :D

    Cheers, ah okay that's grand, I thought when over a week had passed I wouldn't get one at all. Can live in hope now that some day he'll write to me. <3

    Has anyone here booked on campus accommodation and still hasn't received an e-mail about fees? In the email we got about it in February it says we should have gotten it by now but I just rang CLS there and they said it won't be out until August. Wondering which one is more reliable? I always panic with things like this when it involves money :o

    They changed SULIS!

    I need to find a bookie before Week1! Does anyone know if the Germans allow you to bet on SULIS failures?

    To the Instint team who are going around taking all the gyms whilst the campus is quiet. I'm sitting in main building watching you. I may go around after you and retake the gyms before you get your defenders bonus. This is your warning. Let the games begin.

    You're a step ahead of me, you knew it was a possible Pokemon reference... I was just completely baffled and thought the poster was referring to some team robbing the Arena or something... :o

    Repeat is next Friday and only had time off work to study now. Already repeated module before so it's now or never. Anybody know if the lecturers just usually write a similar exam to the summer ones, considering some are away during the summer and don't have time to be thinking of new ways to rattle yah? :D

    I saw that too. I checked at 9am and neither the actual site or the tt.daniel site were updated. Hopefully it's later on!

    3-6 lab on a Friday that I can't move is annoying. I have 27 hours which is fine. I'm happy with it all except the Friday lab.
