Get yourself up to Newcastle IMO for management. It's low cost living in Bradford for a very good reason.

Bradford is rough as **** on a night out, but the accomodation is OK and pretty cheap.

Huddersfield where i'm at is pretty good accomodation is good and theres lots of cheap beer lol, oh yeh theres 1000s of fit birds aswell, not that you'll be taking advantage lol.

Well all I am interested in is getting a good Degree, I have never lived in the North apart from living in Scotland when I was much younger!

I have enjoyed living in France but you can't beat Home!....I am looking forward to having a social life albeit on a very low income. I am doing something that I never thought I would and following my dream to be a Lawyer.

I know that it will be a culture shock but realistically much of my time will be studying, I don't intend wasting four years of my life getting pissed and achieving nothing.......Fingers crossed got to get accepted first :wink:
