I suppose I'm still open-minded enough to stay in the lounge rather than start opening up a topic in the flameboard about my new status. I have finally arrived at my new uni in Reading.

The work is yet to begin, but already I've ended up drunk three times in assorted attempts to socialise with my neighbours in my new hall of residence.
It's early days I suppose, but they do seem rather 2-dimensional in their pusuiot of booze, booze and, er sex with booze. But I digress, this ain't a flame. (That comes later once my homesickness has started to close blood vessels to my frontal lobes!)

One plus is that I have a computer cluster a few mins walk from my room, which as I wrote is empty. (It is also a bit prone to crashing, but hey, I'm here aren't I; I'm posting on the net aren't I?)

So I look forward to using you all as emotional crutches..(AHEM!)..er...I mean savour the community atmosphere which I trust will also include juicy spoilers for new Trek and the first contact with that elusive beast: The Fifth franchise.

Stay foxy!

You see that Wembley Stadium? Well, when charged with negative Firsteron particles, it can immediately depolarise all inherent foxiness within a 0.3 LY radius. Excuse me while I initiate the Firsteron pulse. . . }B)

Of course, Monty'd still in shock from discovering that down here in England, you don't have to go outside to piss.

Oh, and that we have cold and hot running water.

Yes, I've noticed - although my privvy is still a good trudge from my quarters/cell. It does have the advantage of being unisex. While it remains an unlikely scenario, it is within the reals of possibility that i should one morning enter and disturb a lady about her shower, etc.
(ahem)
But excite ye not; more likely I'll just disturb a rat about it's droppings...

Ah yes, Reading! - I remember it well. I was there only once, but it started to rain as soon as I got there. I never went back.

Monty was moving South, so I decided to move North. I got a work placement in Manchester, so I've moved here, the city of that red filth, Manchester United. Still, there's some good news: the work's good and I've got myself a room at the nurses accomodation at North Manchester Hospital.

Would anyone care to join me?
