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.

£600?? I bet they're keen to find the ones who do it!

I hope it doesn't happen again. Sheesh!

Bet the firemen are happy if you're sitting there in your jammies!

Go - drink wine - feel better!

::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::

Sounds like my work! Fire alarms all over!
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.
::hugs::

Thanks! It's from one of my photos from Moonridge. [profile] peter_neverland played a bit with it and made the icon for me. I have to say I love it too - he was looking right at the camera...squeeeeeee!!!!
