Today I went to Leeds uni for their open day, again on the train which actually makes the day a lotmore easier not having to drive and find parking spaces, means we can relax on the train home. And so I am writing this.
Started off with a very early morning. Half past six is far to early on any day but especially for a saturday but even so we got up and were on the train and pulled into Leeds station (which is very nice btw) at around 9:05. We took the free bus up to the university campus and decided that it probably would be best to do an accommodation tour first before it got busy. The accomodation was very nice but similar to the accommodation in Manchester but unfortunately we didn’t look at the accomodation in Sheffield so I am afraid I can’t compare it. We then thought we knew the way back to the main university campus which we didn’t and so walked back to where we started and caught the bus back to the campus.
To kill a bit of time we decided to go and have a look round the SU and seeing as we were just in time for the student life talk we saw it and it was well worth it. We wandered round the SU again and found the pasty show and I had a lamb and mint Cornish pasty which was really nice and I would recommend.
From there we went up to the engineering talk which I suppose is just getting samey now but we still need to go to all the same. We then had a tour of the enginneering department which wasn’t as indepth as the Sheffield tour but was a lot nicer as it was shorter, comparable in length to the tour in Cardiff.
From there we grabbed lunch in the refectory in the SU which was good but I was still full from my pasty. The only problem with it was that there wasn’t anyone telling people there was more food round the corner and so people were queuing up for hot pannis and salad not realising there was pasta round the corner.

But overall it was a very good day. Really good SU and it now makes my university decision harder.
