Ok so I've signed up to a HEA diploma course starting in September. I'm 31 and have no idea what I need to take! My partner laughed when I mentioned I'd need a umbro backpack...but my handbag won't carry books and things what does everyone else do?

DD swears by Cath Kinston rucksacks - they are really roomy and keep everything nice and dry.

My DS's grew out of them and they are 15 and 14!

Get a good quality rucksack with a padded laptop section.

Is it a full time course?

DD uses a graffea leather rucksack, they're not cheap but she's a brand whore starting her 4th year and it still looks good and its smart enough for when she's got teaching practice.
