    Last year I got approx £1100 or so too because my course was over 30 weeks.

    Thank you, I thought I had received that much last year but a couple of folk here were adamant I couldn't have. I was doubting myself :p

    A five minute drive? Could you not walk it?

    I have to travel a good thirty miles. I have a twenty five minute walk, a thirty minute train journey (at least), a ten minute subway journey, and another five-ten minute walk.

    ok since we're having a "My Mum's better than your Mum" competition - I have to travel 40 miles to Edinburgh, which can be 2.5 hours each way if the traffic is shocking. :D

    No because walking would take me about 1 hour and a half. And im certainly not gonna walk that when i have a car and paid a fortune to learn to drive and get my car, why would i walk thats stupid.

    OK, whatever. A five minute drive wouldn't take me that long to walk, but everyone is different and sometimes walking isn't possible.
