Well, I just think back to when I was a minor noble; I spent most of my time dicking on elder brothers & tended to leave the king alone. Even then it didn't work, and I had to wait for the English to capture him

It never really came up when I was looking around tbh; I'm told it's a great place and one of my mates' older brother is moving back there from Bath to do his PhD. But it just never really showed up when looking at Engineering degrees (although neither did Brunel, which shows how much I know). Lough...

Since it's come up, I should probably mention that I live about 25 miles from oxford and have a mate studying mat science there. Was considering Oxbridge for uni but didn't feel like I'd suit the environment, so been looking elsewhere

I tend not to have too much of a problem with rebelling factions, probably since I tend to never bother raising crown authority; if they give me cash and money in any reasonable supply then I'm quite happy for them to fight the rest out among themselves (this may also be because I've got a gavel kin...

Divide my time between rugby, beating stuff up, and spending far too much time on the interwebs. As a result, perpetually single. Suffer from mild depression, and an und...

For everyone who has suffered with their monsters during 2012, I offer this as a completely irrelevant comment that I like to hold on to: "Tough times don't last. Tough people do"

How do I stop myself biting my nails? I found out a couple of years that the trick was not to concentrate on 'don't bit nails' but think more 'try to grow nails'; dunno if it's the positive goal that worked or what. Worked for me for a good two months, before I realised that I found longer nails re...
