So for the second time since I arrived on Sunday, I (and many others) got to spend an hour sitting in a seedy courtyard, in my pyjamas, waiting for the fire brigade. At least, this time, it was still light and I wasn't in bed. Last time it went off at 1.30am. Man.
And that's only in Halls. There were two false alarms in the Mansion (the main building) this week, too.
I'll bet I'm not half as pissed off as the firemen, mind. Or the U. It costs them £600 for every false alarm.

I hope it doesn't happen again. Sheesh!

Bet the firemen are happy if you're sitting there in your jammies!
::Casts dubious look at Snailbones:: I think that's HIGHLY unlikely! Have you SEEN my jammies? They'd embarrass Huggy Bear.
It was burnt toast - you could smell it everywhere, but halls - ie, Gubay Halls of Residence, known locally as The Gulag - is so thoroughly run down and so, so seventies (man!) the smoke alarms are stupidly sensitive. I'm told you can't even have a tea light without incurring their wrath ::G::

Loses the novelty factor at 1.30am and after a couple of times in such a short span. At least we don't get as far as the Fire Brigade...
You have my sympathy.
