Okay.
Yeah.
And I had loads of fun at university.
It was just the best.
I made good friends.
I'm still very close with that.
And so it was brilliant, but I'm not sure I'd tell my kids to go to uni now.
What about you?
Really?
Well, just because it's so expensive.
When I was there, it was the year before they introduced fees.
No, sorry, they introduced fees when I was there, but my dad got a grant from Solihull Council because it's separated from my mum, so I managed to win it.
And it was the year after that that tuition fees came in because I remember we were on the steps of Uni in Nottingham and I was leading a big gang of people with a loudspeaker protesting against fees coming in.
And we could do anything in those days, couldn't we?
You didn't have to pay for it.
Okay, you had to pay for your...
accommodation and things but I think now if my kids would have to pay £8,000 a year or whatever the crazy fee is yeah you better you better have the right course that's appropriate to something you actually want to do otherwise it's like you're just spending money when you can just go and get a job yeah it seems we can just do anything in our day
I think Shan was involved to begin with.
No, I think it was just Jake on his own and then Dar, Jake, and then Jake, Dar and Shan.
It's funny how everybody remembers different angles of it, isn't it?
