Re: The Old Fire Station 2012/2013I'm in 266H too, we must be in the same flat - cool!(Original post by ralkid)
Hey
I'll be in 266H, Block F - anyone else?
It was between Mealmarket and the Fire Station, but after viewing the Firestation it was a no brainer.
It's gonna be goooooood! -
Re: The Old Fire Station 2012/2013I'm in 266L room 4(Original post by anmaclean)
Hey.
I'm in 266L Room 5.
I'm going into first year and I wasn't sure about accommodation but, after I saw the Old Fire Station, I didn't want to live anywhere else!
that's so good that i've managed to find someone who I'm sharing with

Re: The Old Fire Station 2012/2013I almost just booked a room in 264J! I'm still hesitant about booking anything though as I haven't sent my financial forms to Aberdeen yet and I don't know...It's really hard to make a decision on stuff like this when I'm so far away and have no way of really looking into housing but I think I'll be booking a room by tomorrow evening or so. Have you been there and checked everything out yet? It would be nice to be able to chat with someone who's looking into the same place.(Original post by Jaymai)
First year and pooping myself!
I have hardly ever lived away from home aha
!
Im going to be staying in 264J? Anyone?

Re: The Old Fire Station 2012/2013I'm in Aberdeenshire, so pretty nearby already. Indeed!(Original post by amy_macs)
From the Isle of Lewis, and you? It's pretty cool being able to find people that we'll be staying with already!

I'll pm you my facebook cause I'm sure we'll end up adding each other at some point... unless it turns out we don't get on at all

I'd say go for it unless there's any better options for you personally.
I've had a tour of the fire station, I can see it being a lot of fun living there! There's everything you'd need nearby including shops and entertainment, and the universities too of course. -
Re: The Old Fire Station 2012/2013Aw would be good if you booked into 264J haha so i could speak to someone before i move in ;D!(Original post by makethespkrzbleed)

Well i live an hour and a half from Aberdeen and i happened to go to Aberdeen for the weekend and got a phone call from my mum to say i got into college so i went straight to look at the accommodation in aberdeen and the 'Old Fire Station' was my favourite and it is very close to union street which is helpful for night outs
and is not from uni/college either! I would recommend staying! I also don't know how much i am getting through SAAS though

Re: The Old Fire Station 2012/2013I have no idea what SAAS is! Haha. So you don't know the other 2 guys who've booked 264J? I'm pretty sure that's the room I'm going to book later today if it's still available. Do you have facebook or skype or something? I'd love to get to know the people I might be living with!!!(Original post by Jaymai)

Thanks for the advice! I'm making so many big decisions about going overseas that I can never be sure if my judgement is any good, haha. But yeah, I think by tonight or in the next few days I'll have booked a room!(Original post by ralkid)
