Whilst in York i lived with my mate Tom, Will and Mike from Leeds University at 165 ALbermarle Road, which is just a few minutes walk from the York Racecourse, and was on the same road as the Knavesmire Pub.
LPC was fairly boring and mainly consisted of rote learning rather than being taught anything too useful. The practical assesments on accounts,tax, interviewing and advocacy were a bit better, but not much.

We had a 5 a side football team whilst we were there: Consisted of Mike, Will, Simon, Ben, Ali , Garreth, Huw and Myself. We played once a week, and eventually finished 3rd in the league I think. We won our first4 games, then lost 2 and then won the last one. The league never actually got finished because the organisation was piss poor, so we could claim that we might've fnished second.
Made some good mates in York and I hope to be able to keep in touch with them for some time.

Ben , Simon, Ali, Anthony, Will, Mike, Garreth, Huw and Me.
This is what we are all up to now:
Ben- starts work for Olswang in London in September. So will be moving down there in the very near future. Spent the summer staying up doing sudoko's in his garden and signing on.

Simon- Start

Mike - starts working for my firm Eversheds in Leeds in September. He is looking for people to live with now. Spent the summer travelling with his girlfriend and playing "Sonic Spinball"
Dave- coming with me to China. Currently on a vac scheme with a Hull Law Firm looking to see if he can get a training contract.
Will- like me Will doesn't start work until next year and until then he is going travelling. I think will is exploring South America, New Zealand, Australia and China and then coming back to start work for DLApiper in Leeds.
