Hi! Im staying in Cwrt Mawr from September. I'm really looking forward to it, although Cwrt Mawr does have a reputation for being the loudest residence...apparently.

cwrt mawr isnt really the loudest accomodation from my experience is just the least kinda monitored as there are som many different blocks, and the wardens do get involved that much

It isn't as loud as Penbryn, at least in Cwrt Mawr you have carpet and relatively thick walls, in Penbryn there are no carpets and the walls are very thin.

I'm in Cwrt Mawr!!!!! I just got my letter and have just stopped screaming :smile: yay!

Though I was wondering, does anyone know how to pronounce the name?.... I'm don't and I feel slightly stupid. I can see it now

"Hey, where are you staying?"
"Why, I'm staying in that building over there.... the one with the... windows...."
"Cool, whats it called again?"
"Its called..... ermm..........."*runs away*

I have an order from oneposter.com expected tomorrow... :biggrin:

I pronounce it "Kurt more" (ish) but with a bit of "awr" instead of "ore"...

Be thankful the walls are painted. A relative of mine that was at a different uni just had the plain breeze blocks, with couloured blu-tack in the gaps from years of posters!
*note to self, learn welsh*

my accomodation pack came today, so i have another trees worth of forms from aber to do :biggrin: itll be worth it thought!

yeah I'm adding 'learn welsh' to my list of things to do before I die , it would seriously reduce the amount of paper we get sent if they could just publish it all in one languageee!
