i posted some photos up in the accommodation thread along with a lil bit of info, i used to be in blck 21 in a 6 person-er :smile:

the kitchens are much bigger in these than in a 5-bedder, you have 2 freezers which helps immensely :wink:

I'm in Tennis Court, got the accomodation pack through this morning.
Hi, me too.

I got Block 1 Flat 1 room 5. Any impressions of that area, positive or negative? (Though preferabley positive :p: ) Is there any real reason why the fist set of rooms are more expensive? I got a more pricy one and was wondering if it's really any different or if you're paying for conveniance.

I think the more expensive ones are those that have been refurbished recently, so you have the advantage of newer stuff in those blocks.
Is anyone buying the Tennis Court freshers package now? It looks good, but I'm not sure whether most people go to them or events at the Guild, so if anyone could enlighten me I'd be very grateful!

Go for the Tennis Courts Club Tours - I was a little apprehensive about it (i dont really go clubbing at home [we dont have any] and i found the whole thought of it a little scary), but i met some of my best friends on that club tour - there are some people that live in different halls that I still say hello to, only having met them on the club tour.

Plus you get T-SHIRTS!!

I also bought the Guild freshers pack, but i went on more of the TC nights out - i did go to the freshers ball and fab n freshers at the guild though

Hey.

Just signed up to ask the same question, but it looks like someone's done it for me! And yeah, I'll be at Tennis Court too, Block 19 Flat 119. Guess that means I'm not in any of the new renovated flats, but feck it.

Look foward to seeing you at the Fresher's week stuff if you're participating. I for one, am getting my cheque off asap!

You'll be glad you're not in the renovated flats - you're in Centre Court! Its the best, most social part of TC! PLus the flats are huge compared to the other blocks! [NB: blocks 18 - 21 are centre court - let me know if anyone is in good ol' block 21!]
