All set for food for a year!

Yea there's a bit of that all around there. The garage is all plate glass and sells Lotus cars and faces straight down the road with the Talybont South road entrance at the bottom.
I know where it is :smile: Am i right in thinking that if you are driving past talybont court (court on your right), you can just about see talysouth if you look to your left? Im sure i spotted a kind of residency looking place today!
...Did someone say... house party? :biggrin: :woo:

No no no no no. You can see bits of Talybont South between the trees behind the petrol station just before Talybont Court (if you're heading towards town). The entrance is back about 150 metres up the road though.

That's what I want to hear about! :p:
:p: no promises kids. But like I said, I'm in a student house and I don't see why we can't all gather there one night in the first week with pizza and a few bottles. So long as people promise not to trash the place/have sex in my bed XD
im there! haha :biggrin:

Oh but... :hubba:

(Not quite sure where I'm going with that.)

Just out of interest, how come you chose the student houses?

I think I'm going to visit Cardiff a couple of weeks before I move, just to get my bearings before I'm actually there!

Oh, and I'm in house 17 in Talybont South, seems pretty far away from you guys in houses 1 and 2!

I didn't. Well, they were my third choice. I basically took the map, went where's the humanities building...and then picked my accomodation in order of proximity :p:

As to where they are in relation..I don't know, but it's on the same road as Colum hall and literally round the corner from the humanities building!

They're basically down the road a bit, halfway between Talybont and the Student Union/Main Campus.

Just above number 12 on this map:

Ah cool, seems like pretty much everything is easy to get to anyway.
Ooh, whilst I remember, is there anyway anyone can give me a rough idea of what is said in the 'survival guide' on the cardiff website? for some reason it won't load on my computer and just crashes all the time.

Just out of interest [as we seem to have turned the residences ito a bit of a general chatty thread] has anyone had a reading list or anything sent through yet? In fact, has anyone had ANY post from Cardiff whatsoever? :P:
