Don't think there were any geologists actually.

No, no pool table... what did you do to it?


The caretakers took it because my pool playing was offensively bad

Ah, fair enough.

Speaking of caretakers, one of them walked straight into my (locked) room without knocking, when I'd just got out of the shower. That was fun.

my caretaker loved me, i was really polite to her and helped her clean because it always calms me down :smile:
:P That's rather sweet. I don't think my room got cleaned in the end (not that it was messy), think the crazy half naked girl scared him off.

they don't clean rooms, they clean the bathrooms. They provide a fresh towel every other day :smile:

True,

At least if I get in I'll have plenty of time to practice
Well whatever they were trying to accomplish they didn't manage it :P

I accidentally nicked a towel, actually. Didn't mean to- they can have it back if I get an offer.

edit: You helped them clean the bathrooms? That's normal :P

They didn't bother trying to tidy my room, just stuck a towel on my bed.

Well, I had to make it homely while I was there ;D
