First of all, one question for many people when they hear you say that you're going to Loughborough University is 'Where's that!' Loughborough is situated in the county of Leicestershire, and is a short train ride away from Nottingham, Leicester and Derby. it is a small market town, known for the University.
In terms of the town, Loughborough is fairly small, and doesn't have much to offer in terms of shops. There are a few nationwide shops such as Top Shop and New Look, but not any where near the amount of shops that reside in Leicester or Nottingham. Being a student, I've found this quite useful, as it doesn't encourage you to go spending money that you haven't got on clothes, as there isn't really anywhere to shop!

Hunted is the fifth book in mother and daughter team P.C. and Kristin Cast's House of night saga. I bought my copy for £3.49 new from Amazon, but the jacket price is £6.99, as with most books now, if you shop around you are pretty much guaranteed to get a deal on it, and I know that it's much cheaper used. At present the first five books are available in paperback, the sixth (Tempted) was released in hardcover on October 27th 2009, and should be available in paperback 7-10-2010. A seventh book, Burned, has been announced with an expected release date of May 2010.
**History and background**
This is another saga of teenage/young adult vampire fiction, a genre which regularly comes back into vogue. Cast seems to have piggybacked on the huge success of the Harry Potter series, and I suppose possibly on the Stephanie Meyer Twilight saga ...
Advantages: An entertaining show Disadvantages: None
A cup of tea, a sandwich and a lunchtime sit down to watch an episode of Bargain Hunt. Although the programme centres around the contestants making a profit from their bargain hunting the emphasis is all on the two teams pitting their wits against one another.
The programme starts with Tim Wonnacott introducing two eager teams, each team is made up of just two members and one team is given red sweatshirts and the other team blue sweatshirts.
Each team is then assigned an expert in the world of antiques who will endeavor to help them find something in a local Antique Fair that they will purchase themselves and take to auction in the hope of making a profit.
There are a few experts who regularly appear on Bargain Hunt, Phillip Serrell, who is often seen wearing a Rupert bear scarf ! David Barby, Kate Bliss and James Braxton to name ...
