Default 3 months, student funds what to do?

..

Finished all exams today, don't enroll for uni until 28th September, if I get the grades anyway.

I work part time (12hrs) but trying to get more, but student wages aren't that great.

18 next week so thats a relief, just 3 months need serious planning for possible travelling or things to do.

Any suggestions?

Do you have money to travel? Or do you need to get some cash earned for spends at uni?

Well, I could travel its just where & for how cheap.

Last year me and 3 mates got a tent, sleeping bag and little food and just travelled and walked for miles, but this time I have a bike, also my mates drive so we're considering France.

I'm considering France and/or Switzerland (after seeing Plowie's pics in other thread I'm VERY tempted) on the bike.

Thats starting tonight.

I need to get more hours or another job but I didn't realise how difficult it might have been, money isnt a big issue, but I'm sure it will be in a month or so time.

simple trip and possibly most enjoyable follows!


Step1: get on bike and ride it down to basingstoke

step2: i get on my bike and we go for a ride wherever

step3: we come back, get dressed up abit then go to town

step4:

step5: sleep for a day at mine

step6: ride some more

step7: do all again from step 2 onwards till boredom or money runs out.


well that seems like a plan to me, you in?
