No - we have one week cooling off period at student halls but not looking likely that anything else on offer.
Halls are really pricey too! It was my dd that found our flat then contacted the page to see if people wanted to share. Has she looked to see if there are any flats to rent? The main issue I found was that they have to be 18 years and over, letting agents won't except minors as you can't hold them legally responsible for paying the rent nor can they have a guarantor. Hopefully when shes down there she can maybe sort something for next year. At least you have somewhere, that's the main thing. x
Actually was able to find a shared flat 5 mins walk from Urdang!
Works out about the same as halls but less travelling time - sharing with a 2nd year and a 3rd year so hopefully they’ll take dd under their wing!

Good luck to all those heading off this week - a few of DS friends are going now so it is getting real. Just spent £250 on dance kit (as his current lot were looking ropey) and still have to buy the acting clothes he needs - suit, tie, smart shoes... then he will be off on 22nd.

Good luck too to all you parents stuck behind hoping they are happy/clean/sleeping enough/managing money and travel. Hope they keep in touch a lot but not too much!

Yes, Good Luck 2018 starters :D Hope everyone's enjoying it all so far. There will be some aching muscles once the lessons start! It is so nice to know about all the DCs that have been on the 2018 audition journey. Congrats to all you supportive parents too. It does make a difference.
