  • Indeed, I missed out on free uni by a couple of years, but the much smaller fees back then were enough to mean I'd have really wanted to go to find a way to afford it, stayed in my now wife's halls for a while so got the fun stuff for free, she had to drop out part way through year 2 though as it also became unaffordable for her, I think the debt is close to being struck off soon. Honestly don't think there's anyway in hell I'll be able to pay for my daughter to go, which is a shame because she's pretty smart and likes learning, although I did too at that age.

  • There were even free grants to go to UNI

    There was a time you could get housing benefit and unemployment benefit out of term time.
