Burbage Anyone??

Burbage seems to be very small in terms of people in comparison to other blocks...!

yeh burbage has 154 (i think, its about that number) compared to Howdens 375 or Frogg 300 and something. but its good coz you do get to know everyone pretty quickly or at least recognise them if you see them out in the union or something.

im in B4! anyone know what that apartment's like?

oh wicked, thats a relief!
is it true that each flat is single sex btw?

Ahh, I'm in E block, all for the mixed flat! lol
Good to hear Burbage is small, I can get to know a lot of my fellow Burbageians this way =]

Martin, does E have a reputation for anything? Good, bad? Things to uphold or discard lol

Yeah, it had a rep alright. What you've got to understand is that most blocks are adjacent to another. In Burbage, A and B are separate but C and D are joint so B2 is opposite C2 on Level 1 so E block is joint with F so its not E block but E/F block. E/F's rep was as the messiest block, a lot of the flats in the block were always fouling the lift with alcohol and/or takeaways. If they haven't changed the carpet when you come then you'll see a patch in front of the lift where curry and chips was split.

Flats are not mixed sex except for B block, B block in Howden was also mixed so that might run true for everywhere but in E/F the first two floors were boys flats and the last 3 floors were girls flats.

Also, try to get to know all your block in the first few days. Its unlikely you'll get to know people in other blocks. For example, I didnt recognise some people in other blocks til very late and I'm pretty sure mtbab has no idea who I am!
