Finished uni on Thursday. Now residing in the parents establishment in crappy Nottingham. Leeds is a fantastic city, loved my three years there. Loved how easy it was to get into the Dales, go for an amazing drive.

I miss Leeds so much, pretty much mostly for the amount of stupidly attractive girls walking around the city centre and Headingley.


I have decided pretty much that after my masters degree I'll try and find some work up there.

Also! A slight plus point is that you've got a damn sight better chance of not getting shot, stabbed or mugged on a night out in Leeds compared to Nottingham. hehe

Fingers crossed for a good grade! Leeds uni is a strange place. Lots of concrete and horrible 60s/70s stuff, but somehow with an addictive feelgood factor. Have you decided what postgrad you will be doing?

I hear you on the ladies in headingley. At work in summer no matter where I am in Leeds I always go via headingley hehe. No wonder the traffic is always so bad biggrin

Well, I'm hopefully going to be doing a Masters degree in Property Investment, and then try to become a chartered surveyor. For the latter I might try and seek out jobs in Leeds though, or maybe I'll stay in Nottingham.

I've got a mate who works for Donaldsons in Leeds, they always seem to be recruiting and he likes working there. Worth a try when you have finished your Masters.

Nice one Bert, what degree have you done?
Summer off being a bum, or getting a "real job" ?
Theres only one reason I didnt study in Leeds, its my home city and I wanted a change.
Where you from? Stay in Yorkshire, its magic biggrin
