I'm so glad you appreciate my college's porters! they always were the best. (In my time, they could tell a regular boyfriend - "Good night, sir," - from a casual - "GOOD NIGHT, SIR!!") There are two opinions about the architecture, though. People have been known to compare the front bit to a prison - or a stud.

the_marquis' wife, na_lon, was at St Hugh's, I believe, and has a nickname for your place given its carcerous appearance - HMLMH.

Ask her if she knows the joke about the five Oxford girls waiting at a bus stop. (Of course it's irrelevant now all the colleges are mixed, but it still stood in my time.)

Ooh, tell me? I've never heard it (St. Hilda's, by the way.)

Also it was a well-known fact that the best way to get rid of an unwanted admirer was to invite him to LMH Hall.
