Good luck, and you'll need it in Bigg Market... 
They do have inter-thingy up there, don't they?

Three years in Newcastle. Excellent, they'll have a whale of a time.
Good luck!

Haven't you signed up yet (you could do with some help)?

All the best to you both.
You never know the rain might have stopped by the time you get back

All the best, Tay and Andy. Welcome to the northern end of Downsizer !

Tay

Thank you all for the good luck wishes... Please send some more as we're having a dreadful time trying to find accommodation.
Newcastle really is a great city, clean, green and excellent transport links. If you haven't visited it, do so - you're missing out.

Hi Tay
Did you notice the new Mafia sign up thread?
Good luck with the house hunting.
|
Cathryn

Tay - perhaps someone on here can help with some ideas (and a luxury house that needs looking after for a few years maybe?)
|
Jamanda

Sorry Tay - you were streets ahead of me!

Been and come home again. Unfortunately Fee didn't arrive until we were already there  But we had a nice time with Ali and the boys. And we all waved at a little boat that we decided must be Jonnyboy

sounds great (I'm sure it was Jonnyboy ) Don't take all the limoncello tonight you never know when you might need some more...

Good luck Tay and Andy. Have you tried asking the Uni for their accommodation list?
What are you going to study?
|
Tay
|
Thanks. The accommodation list is of no help to us as the uni will not let two people share one room; we have to rent two... Which we don't want or need, and certainly can't afford.
We'll be studying GIS - Geographic Information Science, so cartography, digital mapping, remote sensing etc. Should be fun, providing we're not homeless.

I take it you are cybercafe-ing at present?
You have our sympathy, we have been there too. It is quite an adventure really.

Tay, are you undergraduates? If you are, try asking for the post-grad accommodation list. That usually has some provision for couples. The undergraduate list will assume you're teenagers and not requiring accommodation for couples.
|
Tay

Thanks for that. The uni did give us the post-grad list (yes, we are undergraduates), but there was only one place on it which was suitable, and that had gone already. We're still looking, but now for flats rather than house-shares. Saw quite a nice one yesterday - just got to sort out the dosh for it.

I'd help but it was twenty years ago and I was drunk. There used to be a sandwhich shop at the bottom of the steps from the Union into town. Cracking peanut and banana stotties. Are you based in the Geography dept?

I know you have heard it before from me but...
