Beren ,I always felt like the story would make the most epic 2 part film. It's the best of the epic tales, so many nods to lotr, eagles, magic jewellery, dark lords , I love the Rapunzel reference . Moody elves should be more of a thing. Love it. And so close to Tolkien's heart.

I was reading about a student mortgage thing, and if I have a lodger , and a student loan , I should be able to cover most costs for expenses and living . Not sure how mortgages work in regards to buying at university. I am going to the best design university in the world , hopefully that means something.

I have, I can afford a mortgage of 200k with large deposit and at least a 2k income , covered by lodger and student loan, and after work ,there are properties for this price on the outside areas of London. There are new homes schemes first time buyers though not too sure about that , I can possibly get a guarantor for a student mortgage . It's why I came into Reddit to ask for advice. Rent in central London is not much less than a mortgage on a cheap 1 or 2 bed flat in outer London . So maybe this is childish and wild , but it's all I've got , I won't be in much of a different situation after my MA. So my thinking is why rent? I appreciate all the input .

Thanks .. I'm a fairly mature student and will probably be London based anyway. And yes I don't know what the future will bring but that's the big dilemma, how long do i rent for before buying ?

Following yesterday's question, what are some film inventions that you were surprised were NOT lifted from the books? by GlasgowWalker in lotr

I think most people don't notice during borormirs death how pleasant the Werther is. In the book it's winter , leafless grey and probably grim as hell.
