Present UK home student fees is around ~3000. Triple it will makes it ~10,000, that's the exact figure mentioned in the news.

Of further interest is, International students are already now paying ~10K now. So if you triple that, it would be ~30K and that's not what's mentioned in the news.

Hence it would be pretty safe to say the fee increase only affects the home student.

Pray to god you don't get randomly checked.

My friend got his 8 cartons and 2 liter of alcohol confiscated.

I brought in 6 carton safely(for my friends).

Will it be as bad as simple.ology said? sued?

For your friend case, just confiscated? Any other problems?

If i plan just get like 1 carton is it okay?

His items got confiscated and he was slapped with two tickets on liquors and cigarettes respectively. 1 carton was the permissible limit. But well, people like me don't like that limit.

i'm just curious usually how long does the abx express takes to send the thing back to me in kuching? the status is "processed application returned on" since yesterday afternoon 1pm+.so does that means they already send it back to me?so when will i usually receive it? gosh,my uni already started this week and i'm still in kuching.

Express would usually mean 2-3 working day(s).

i just received my visa this afternoon. will be flying on sunday night. hope everything goes well. btw,klm baggage allowance is just 23kg?hand luggage is 7kg?

Said only hand luggage 7kg. But you can bring more actually. I guess mine was like 15kg +

So which uni you're going?

university of teesside.not a high ranked uni though.hehe.

may be not that bad la.... but summons are for sure...

however, thanks to bunch of my non smoking friends...
i'm able to SMUGGLE in 30 cartons of ciggy .....
and sell 2.5pounds per pack to other smokers in need....

I still got 8 cartons left in my room. I don't smoke. Bought it for a friend who's still in Germany for Oktoberfest. Curse him.

for the good of your friends, don't you all think you should encourage them to stop smoking, instead of buying cheap cigarettes for them?....

In the world where people are constantly baffled between money and health, would anyone deprive the chance to earn more money because they care about ur health? Just look at our government.

Sadly speaking, no. Even if there were, it's only the minority.

Please keep this topic for the information of studying in UK. Question of living condition and environment are okay too

Well, im pretty sure that they are old enough to judge the good and bad of smoking.

I don't earn anything. It's more like a favour. I believe they are old enough to think for themselves but if they need something and I can get it, why wouldn't I?

Btw, is it me or the weather here is getting more random?

it's usually quite cooling but sometimes it's so hot
doing way more laundry than usual cos i keep sweating.

with the same logic, if your friend wants to commit suicide, you would help him do it, because he is old enough to think for himself?.........

or he wants you to bring in heroin for his addiction, you would do it?.........

wow.. glasgow is cold though =S and it starts raining =.="

very random here at my place ... yesterday was very good and today rained almost the whole day & heard loads of girls screaming when their umbrella flipped over.. forecast shows another rainy day tomorrow ...
