I'll let you guys know now - the porters at Badock are absolute legends, in particular Jack, the head porter. Don't piss them off and you'll have such a good laugh with them. They're one of the things I'm going to miss most about Badock.

Hey El Pollo Diablo- jus wondering-how long is it from Badock to the main Uni precinct? eg, if you walk/take the bus? and does it take ages waiting for the bus? and how are the music facilities there? thanks :smile:

Walking takes about 35-40 minutes on average. Never got the bus myself, but the Union run a bus service every morning from the top of Hollybush Lane which gets you in for lectures. It was there quite often when I went past, so you shouldn't have to wait for it.

Badock's got a separate music room in the main building, although I only went in once and I can't remember what was in there apart from a piano. There's a good piano in the dining hall too, which I've heard people playing - it got played at the formals too.

I'll need to find out how to "position" the sheet tho. Shouldn't be too hard to find and "modify" an old one but just need to know how. And i'll need some Roman accessories too. Maybe a sword or a cool hat made out of leaves.

Hey, Steve. You got into Badock. Good stuff. Which Unit are you in?

EDIT: Ignore me. You're in Unit 2. I should read other topics before posting. :redface:

At last, I made it into Badock!!!! :biggrin:

Unit 7 Room 7210 (2nd Floor) and get this.... WITH WASHBASIN :biggrin:

I knew all that sweet talking I did when I went down there would pay off.

Let the fun commence

Steve

PS. Anyone with Badock experience have info on my room/unit, as i got lumped with it at the end, there must be something retarded about it.

Badock Hall!
