All that food is making me hungry! Red veg in Brighton is one of my fav places! I miss their bugers! :( I love Brighton, it's one of my absolute favourite cities in the whole of the UK.
I swear I'm still full even though it was yesterday! :D i didn't want to leave Brighton, I've got to move somewhere where it doesn't cost me £50 return on the train to visit.
All that food looks so delicious! I wish we had more places like that in Arizona. Thankfully LA is just a few hours away and I go food crazy when I'm there!
Oh and in the Hollywood area you'd pay roughly £490 a month for a very small studio apartment (maybe 300-400 square feet). And here depending on where you live, you could pay more than that a month. £160 sounds soooooooo cheap!
Oohh no no I meant £160 a WEEK, so £640 a month!! £490 a month sounds very reasonable, especially for an individual space; it'd be loads more than £140 a month for a studio in London! Ridiculous...
yummy yummy! that is ridiculously expensive, even for London, in halls I paid £390 a month or so but food was included. I pay about £350 a month in a house but obviously you've got to put bills on top of that. I'd look into flat sharing but not knowing anyone it may be difficult. :) failing that where I live is ~30-60 mins away from central London so you could come live with me! haha. we already have one herbivore in the house.
Yip, I think it's because Bloomsbury is literally about as central as you can get! I reckon that if I'm spending that amount of money, I can get a pretty decent flatshare in the same area - I just had a really quick look on Gumtree and have found loads for the same price (all inc) but with double rooms :P I'd better get saving! Where abouts were your halls? I wouldn't mind travelling a bit as I've got my bike anyway, so if/when I get accepted I think I'll just spend a couple of days in the city having a snoop around and see what I can find :) Thanks for the offer, too, haha! I'll keep you in mind when it comes to it, and maybe try to persuade you to move into central London next September so I'd have one flatmate sorted ;)
haha yeah Russell Square is the closest tube I think? that's like... ridiculously central London, next to Tottenham Court Rd! Gumtree is the mutt's nuts for finding things, especially free stuff! ~£650 a month is fricking expensive though, although I'd probably be looking at that here too if I wanted to live on my own, unless I was going to live in someone else's house & pay board
( ... )
It certainly is! In Manchester I was paying £360 a month for halls (excluding internet), so £640 is a huge jump :S Do you think you'll stay in London for your PGCE? I think that training in an inner city school will mean that anything I do after that will seem like an absolute breeze ;) How did you find your flatmates this time? I'm absolutely fine with moving in with people I don't know; my ex did it and whilst it wasn't total plain sailing and he couldn't wait to move out, it was just about liveable. I"m definitely going to have to get a job in London whilst I"m doing the PGCE, so that could be interesting and stressful! I need to sit down and work out the money side properly, really...EFFORT.
YUM! I'm seriously considering moving back to the UK in a year or so. Probably to either London, Birmingham, or Nottingham. Not just for the food, although that will be a bonus!
London is terrifyingly expensive, yep... The cheapest house/flatshares I've found are still about £120 a week, and pretty far out. But the University I'm looking into there (for a law conversion course) charges about double that for halls (they do look pretty posh and central, but STILL!).
A friend of mine has a room in a house full of strangers, but it's actually working out really well.
I've just looked at those fried mushrooms again, and that's pretty much swung it: I'm coming back!
Where are you living now? £240 a week is ridiculous, you could get a mansion in a small town for that, I swear! :P Being close to Red Veg would be totally worth paying all that rent, though ;)
