I dont know about any other city but in Portsmouth, there is a better chance of you getting a part time job being a care worker.Most of the guys i know who came in in September are doing that now.

peteafrik88:

Thanx sir. I can cease being thankful, you have been of great help to me. The truth about the matter, is that I dont seem to fancy the care work, as the schedule seems so redundant. I am a very adventourous, pragmatic person and that seem to have affected my choice of work.
Are there no jobs like gardening, cleaning or better still carpentry jobs as the case may be?

dannywest: I'm flying to coventry later this month for my MSc, I would like to know,
1. I'm budgeting 800£ per month (as was estimated) for my living expenses, would that be enough for me to live comfortably or I need to budget more? I dont really socialize.
2. What's the average cost of owning a car in the uk?

Thanks.

Sky-walker:


£800 should be fine
In regards to car. Buying is not the problem.Its your insurance which you might be paying as high as £200 a month or more for insurance since you will be driving with international license before you pass your UK driving test.Even when you get the UK drivers license its still gonna be a bit high.That excludes Road tax and petrol.

gonon: Hi guys, I intend going for my Masters in Kingston University, its in Southwest London, in January. The problem I don't know what to take over there. Please I need your advice on whether I should do my shopping here in Nigeria or over there? Secondly, what do I need to take there, from Naija? Thirdly, I intend to cook when I get there, where do I go to get cheap foodstuffs?

gonon: Guys, just arrived the UK. The cold is on point. Na so so chicken for everything, fish expensive. Well thank God for everything tho

peteafrik88: CHEAP ACCOMMODATION IN PORTSMOUTH!!! I need a help cos the ones I tried finding are too expensive.

Sky-walker:


How much are the ones u seeing? Are you in the UK already?

peteafrik88:

I am not yet in Uk, hope to be by te end of the month. The ones I saw ranges from £3000 - £4000 and that looks very expensive.

Sky-walker:


Well thats roughly the price per year but you can get some cheaper though like £220-£250 per month. You could search here

www.spareroom.co.uk

you can get shared accomodation cheaply here and you most likely avoid paying agent fees as most of them are direct from landlord.

presiade: Good day all,
please I have admission to study MSc Advanced Mechanical Engineering at University of Leeds and my total anticipated expenses is around £24,000 (say #7m). My major challenge, however, is funding; infact I had to defer my admission from Sept., 2012 to Sept., 2013.
I wouldn't mind to obtain a loan to cover my study. Hence, anybody willing to grant me such loan or has a useful connection should please contact me. I'll be paying the loan back in a period of 1 1/2-2 years with a reasonable interest rate.
SCAMMERS PLEASE BE CAREFUL, I only want genuine and straight forward individuals.
Thank you for you comments.
