Revisiting

This week, trouble is afoot in paradise as Winger visits Laura K in Cambridge... Laura G meanwhile is dressed as a smurf at 7am and off to Swansea, all in the name of charity / getting smashed on a delectable concoction known as karni-with-a-k-cocktail. Finally, we're remembering the difficulties of settling in at university, including finding the right friends and being so lonely we called up our exes.

It's Freshers Week in 2010, and we're experiencing the best, and the worst, of university nightlife. We're also remembering our trips to Freshers Fair, from signing up to the Cheerleading Society, to making a beeline for the free Domino's Pizza. We're also discussing our first attempts of doing actual work, and for one of us, it's certainly a baptism of fire. To get in touch with questions, comments, email us: show@berkhamstedrevisited.com.

This week, we’re heading off to start our new lives at university so we’re discussing those all important items we took with us to make us feel at home - think pot noodles, hot chocolate and more pot noodles. We’re also remembering how we tried every technique in the book to make new friends, from buying a door stop to lure people into our rooms, to pestering people in the queue for the cash point.  We’re also reminiscing on bidding our parents an emotional goodbye, or rather, begging them to leave so they wouldn’t cramp our style.  To get in touch with questions, comments, email us: show@berkhamstedrevisited.com.

It's the start of the new season, and we're certainly kicking off with a bang. Back in August 2010, Laura K finds herself in hot water with Winger, so we're discussing what constituents cheating, as well as the phenomenon of 'microcheating'. Meanwhile, Laura G is up to her usual tricks - wearing leather, chatting up boys in the smoking area, and unleashing her wittiest banter. And with university beckoning, Laura K is off to Salamanca in a vague attempt to learn Spanish, so we're chatting about the merits of holidaying alone.
