    This looking for study areas isn't going down too well. Last Thursday the library was grand for seats. Today there's hardly any.

    Anyone know of decent study areas that aren't in the library?

    Hah--all ye fools having to go and collect yer grants :P

    Straight into the bank account baby :)

    How did you arrange to get it sent into your bank account??
    I have mine collected for the year but keep forgetting to get it when it is there, would be handy to have it go straight into my account.

    Mine went straight into my account but they never sent me an email saying it was in there, like they did with past installments. So I got a nice surprise when I checked my bank balance. :)

    Im cork county area i think but at the start of the year they sent out a form and asked if i wanted to have it put straight into myt bank account instead of having to collect it. They are supposed to email when it comes in but haven't for the first two installments this year. Better go see if the next bit is in yet :)

    Fair enough, i'm cork city council so that might explain the difference in how they are given out.

    I think they all should take this approach on. Its so much handier and easier than having to go in and queue up and be treated like cattle up there.

    I have never seen a form to deposit it in the bank for some reason. In fairness the queue sometimes isn't that bad, I was up there on Monday, queue going past the stairs and got in resonably quick.

    How is Togher considered Cork county? :confused:

    Togher is just over the boundary lines of of the City.

    Well actually its really confusing. Its like half is in the city and the other half is in the county. In primary school depending on where you lived only half of togher could take part in some local club as they were only receiving funding for the half that was in the city. So the other half couldn't take part because the county council weren't giving funding aswell as the city council. :confused:

    It's been full for the last few weeks I doubt there'll be any change.

    Are Firefox and Google Chrome not working for anyone else on campus? They're not working now, and weren't working in the library or in the booles.
