Just to let you know

Oh wow Kaz - that really does sound amazing!
The thought of actually spending that day with the keepers would be very tempting!

Closer to home too if she decided on Bristol not so far to go to get her washing done....

[saundra]

well that does sound amazing has alot going for it like you say
and nearer to you travel wise
cant you go as a mature student kaz
when does B have to make her mind up by

[Kaz]

I have mentioned the fact that the train is only a tenner and less than an hour from here, whereas at NTU she would only get home once or twice a term, as it is a long way and quite expensive.......

Bad Mummy trying to influence her

I did ask her if I could sneak into the lectures and sit at the back - I said I'd be so quiet and so little trouble they'd never know I was there. The look of pure horror on her face!!!!!

Saundra by May 1st - if by then she puts Bristol as her first choice she is guaranteed the place and the accommodation.......grades permitting. TBH she already has more than adequate grades from the B Tech she is doing......

Ooo that sounds fab!! On all counts Kaz

It is nice having them close-ish - Jen was only at Newcastle (40 mins drive from here, 10 mins on the train to Durham) although she lived in a house share with four others so totally independant and I rarely saw her - but was close enough to get there in a short time if necessary

It sounds perfect to me too Kaz, but as you say it depends what B wants out of it and which place would suit her longer term plans best.
Good length of time for making her mind up though, long enough to have a good think and others' opinions, but not so long she'll be able to dither too much

[Kaz]

Exactly! Although she's saying she will make up her mind before she goes away, so she won't be worrying about it there, and then rushing to get in a last minute application...........

Gal yes, ideal really

I honestly don't mind whichever she chooses, I just want her to make the right decision for her

[Kaz]

Well Bristol is her choice, after all I must admit to being very pleased as it is the best course for her, I think, and it is closer to get home for the odd weekend This is the course

I'm sure she's made the best choice.

She'll do fab!

[Diflower]

Oh that is nice Kaz
I know you'd have been fine with her going further, but still

Thanks both

Yes her being close by is a bonus
