    Normally you won't find out until the day, I think.

    Depends. People were calling up to get them, but so many called up, that now they are refusing to tell anyone by phone. So we'll just have to wait till the day I think.

    When I went to halls you got told your room when you picked up yur keys on the day.

    The rooms in each hall are all pretty much the same though - the big variable is who is going to be on your corridor!

    I got mine, because I want to extend the Endsleigh cover to cover my mobile too, so I can free myself of the shackles of £15 a month from o2. I called Redlands group yesterday but the woman was in the office on her own and couldn't leave it, so she said it was best to email and I had a reply this morning.

    If you're going to be staying in on of the Northcourt Group of Halls (St Patrick's, Sherfield or Sibly), please don't call us up asking to know what room you're going to be in, we are still allocating them so we cant tell you even if we wanted to!! If you have a really good reason to know (the insurance one is!), then by all means drop us an email explaining and we'll try to help

    you'll probably be told soon but other than the basic furniture you'll likely get an extension cord, a network cable, a desk lamp, shelves, a mirror..

    Check out the page for your halls here:
    http://www.reading.ac.uk/internal/fr...ers_Pages.aspx

    On the right hand side of the page is a link to the halls handbook - everything you need to know is in there. Details about what is in your room is on page 7.
