wow sounds like youll have a great time! im jealous lol especially as youre going when its going to be really hot! ive never been in a campervan!

I remember we went to Spain once and it snowed because we went into the mountains. It was sooo coold.

I'll be melting in Aus. I've looked at both Herts and uwe and they both have the same term dates so the most I'll be able to do is 3 weeks.

I'm going away on a clubbing holiday somewhere with mates, and then away with family as well. Probably Zante with friends, and maybe a cruise with family. If i can get my house at uni from summer onwards, i might go to the Isle of Wight for a few days too. I don't see the point in paying for a hotel there when i'll have a house just on the other side of the sea, lol!!

lol! when we went to australia it was their winter but it was still boiling, especially in the northern part, it was like 32 degrees so cant believe how hot it will be in their summer! it was quite weird cos when we went up the mountains in sydney it was really hot but there was snow on the ground! do you only get 3 weeks xmas hols then? we usually get 4

Its what it says on their websites. Its like 3 weeks and a couple of days.

When I decide which I'm going to I'll ask because it might be different for different subject areas...the longer the better though.

yeh itll probably be slightly different depending on lecture times/deadlines etc, this year my modules finished a week before the end of term (so i could have had an extra week xmas hols) but some people had tests and stuff right up til the last day. and most of the time if you can finish the work before the deadline if its at the end of term, most of the lectures on the last week arent relevant to anything so it wouldnt matter missing them lol! hopefully you can get as long as possible off though

Remember you might have exams in January. If your uni starts as early as we do then you'll be back the first week in Jan for exams.

oh yeh i forgot about jan exams cos i dont think my uni do them, but you might also have a deadline straight after xmas as well which if you went for the whole hols you would have to finish beforehand. you went back really early abigail, im not going back til tomorrow!

Good point I forgot about that. For uwe its 12th-23rd January, not sure about Herts can only find past dates. Seems to be later than uwe though. I'm going to definitely ask when I go to the open days again though.

I'm sure if I have exams I can revise when we are driving as well as in the evenings, or any other spare time. I'm not going to have the internet to distract me or tv and I can't really call anyone. Perfect country to revise.

Yeah dm if I had a deadline of coursework or anything I would definitely do it before I went.
