Ricky Road by a mile.

Yeah, Ricky Road.

Then Leazes (if you're a rah) and I suppose Marris House can get rowdy by proximity to Ricky Road...

Ricky Road. Everything you may have heard is true, everything you haven't heard is true. If you want to party and have an immense laugh then ricky road is the place to be.

I fail to understand why threads like this and http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/show....php?t=1089320 pop up.

It's what you make of it, it's not Liquid, it's a halls of residence. There aren't 500 people strong parties every night at Richardson Road, regardless of what urban fokelore you may have heard. Why people talk of 'the parties' as though they are an actual object, let alone worry about not being part of/invited to them is beyond me. You'll be part of whatever your mates are doing, whether that's at Richardson Road or wherever else, believe it or not there's not a guestlist for Richardson Road and people may get funny if you roll up at their flat looking for 'the parties'.

If you want to stay in and get pissed you can do that at Castle Leazes, Henderson Hall, Victoria Halls or whatever else Newcastle are peddling nowadays, or you can go out round the town - whatever floats your boat.

Hows about making your mates at York go out more often? Moving universities for such a frivolous reason seems daft to me.

not enjoying yourself at uni aint a gd enough reason to switch?? they do come out but york itself jst aint my type of place. also, liquid is **** =P

Ricky Road and castle leazes but have a look at them first because they aren't pretty. The quietest are bowsdon court and victoria hall. St mary's college is quieter because it's further out but there are some amazing flat parties.
