Rich Pearson Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I would ask Rob P on here, as he's doing the photography course at Plymouth so is probably pretty clued up on it.Plus the riding in Plymouth kicks ass.Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I don't really have a bad word to say about Plymouth as a city, other than the janners... But you're from up north so you'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonMack Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Newport is good, Cardiff is only 12 minutes away on the train and the night life is awesome.Loads of gigs and stuff, dunno if you're into shows, but... there are loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 There's always a big crowd of emo/goth/chav/whatever you might want in Plymouth city centreYou'll be fineThe area is great, so much so that I'm (hopefully) transferring to Plymouth myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I've looked at Plymouth, and I'm really quite tempted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 In that case Plymouth would probably be cool. I went there a couple of times when my brother was at uni there, and it was really nice down there. Similarly, Welsh coastal towns like Aberystwyth are pretty nice too. Brighton's not too bad, but yeah, not really one of the nicest places. Burglary rate there is nuuuuuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Ooooh I've been to Plymouth uni. I did a week there when I was in year 11.It was okay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish-Finger-er Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 bit of a shit tip isnt it?All i know is id love to go to a uni on the coast, i love the idea of it, but i dont wanna be bored of my tits all the time seeing as i cant ride ne more:(any uni is gunna have a semi decent nightlife(well a decent nightlife) as its full of students, even somewhere fairly small and seemingly boring like aberystwyth has like 4000 people there, on top of the local population. obviously its not a patch on somewhere like manchester which has like 20,000 but youve got to bear in mind, just how many more campus's they have and the massive area their spread out over. but whats your plan with going to the coast, if its just sitting on a beach all day, bare in mind theres probably only 1 in 5 days in the year wer ull chill on the beach and have nice weather to tan and look at the flange. (and a load of them is in the summer holidays when your not there) if your kite surfing or whatever as well, and perhaps fishing, then fair enough.

ZeroMatt Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Some uni bits are shit but the city is allright and the riding in the area is good in my opinion, not just trials to be had. Can get a train out into the sticks where theres some lovely singletrack to be ridden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davetrials Posted July 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 any uni is gunna have a semi decent nightlife(well a decent nightlife) as its full of students, even somewhere fairly small and seemingly boring like aberystwyth has like 4000 people there, on top of the local population. obviously its not a patch on somewhere like manchester which has like 20,000 but youve got to bear in mind, just how many more campus's they have and the massive area their spread out over. but whats your plan with going to the coast, if its just sitting on a beach all day, bare in mind theres probably only 1 in 5 days in the year wer ull chill on the beach and have nice weather to tan and look at the flange. (and a load of them is in the summer holidays when your not there) if your kite surfing or whatever as well, and perhaps fishing, then fair enough.ive always wanted to live on the coast and as i cant ride any more, ive been doing alot of kiting and would love to try kite surfing, so thats a factor. not somthing im going to base my decision on thoughi love the sound of newports course, but a few people have said its a hole...

N.Wood Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I'd definatelty reccomend going to uni on the coast, theres always somthing to do even if you just go for a wander by the sea. It also means that if theres nice sunny day in the winter/non holiday period, you can get down the beach quick without 600000 kids with spades and snotty nose ruining your experience.
