Okay, I officially have the best luck ever.
I failed to get my housing application in anywhere near on time. The woman who was going to put me up for a few weeks arbitrarily pulled out. I was told for weeks on end that I have no place to stay, only ending up with a room (a week before I have to go) which I can't go to until a week later than I need it, from which I would have to take three buses to get to the University.
Five days before I'm due to go, a family friend rings up with a contact who offers me a room five minutes away from the station, on a route which runs there directly. I'm now in a better situation than some students who have University organised accommodation.
Huh.
