Link please. There's only one uni in Reading, and it's closure would be news to me (they are closing one department at the uni, but that's mostly due to lack of interest).

*penny drops*

Still, earning £200 and she doesn't have anyone bar herself to support?

I still wouldn't envy her. I don't know what disability she may have but considering my Dad's agonising arthritis is the lower rate of disability, I would never exchange money for being in constant agony and knowing I'd only be getting gradually worse.
