    I'm planning on going to edinburgh for a year to work.I was going to wait till the end of october to go over but I was wondering what the situation is with accom
    (house/flat share) and jobs(pub/club/restaurant) around that time?or would it be better to go over there asap

    I'm only just back from there, was there for a month so got a semi-decent feel for the place.

    There seems to be plenty of work going, plenty of signs in windows of restraunts and shops and that kind of thing and as far as I can tell there is plenty of accommodation that shouldn't be too difficult to sort out, but there is a pretty big university there so all the students moving there to study would take up a lot of the night jobs like bars and clubs and the stuff you mentioned, as well as pick up any decent places to live that might suit someone moving over who is living on a budget.

    My advice would be to move over sooner rather than later in case all the decent jobs and digs are taken up when you move over mid-semester
