So I know where I'm living now! In Aberdare Hall! I even know which Wing, which flat, which floor and which room I'm in, but I won't put that here ( Read more... )

Coolness! When do you start? Aberdare Hall is right behind the humanities building isn't it?

Incidentally, I went out in Cardiff last night. We ended up in Floyds bar. Did you ever see Mary Queen of Shops?

Yeah it is right behind the Humanities building. I am going to become so lazy...I can see me rolling out of bed 5 mins before lectures begin!

I'm moving in the 19th, and then I've got the first week of freshers fortnight before lectures begin.

I did see some episodes but not that many really... was Floyds bar the one next to a clothing shop?

Floyds is actually a clothes shop that was featured on the show, but they opened a bar upstairs as well. It's on St Mary's Street, the castle end. St Mary's Street is weird now - there are no cars, only buses and taxis so in the night there are no buses and you can just walk around on the road. It felt like a match day when they used to shut the road completely.

Oh! I remember that one now!!! The bar looked adorable and they taught the couple running it how less is more so they de-clutered the clothes.

That's on Mary St???
How on earth did I miss that? *facepalm*

Yeah that's the one! I'd been in the shop before the makeover though I haven't been there since. It's a really small place though, just next to the Castle Arcade.
