Ay, well done! I wanted to apply but it said on the website that you already needed to have grade 8, and I'm doing mine this term dammit. Ah well..

Probably voice, cos i got my highest grade 8 mark for that, but i'm really not sure! :-s anyone know what the teaching at the uni is like? i cant decide whether to have my oboe lessons there or in london? xxx

London to brum can be cheap on train if you a) book well in advance or b) get the train from snow hill/moor street rather than the more expensive new street virgin train version

Well done harri(bo)
