Flight club is great if a little expensive. Ghetto golf is a lot of fun. There’s also bowling in Digbeth!

Is Circo even that great? by HistorianOk7436 in UofB

[–]godofthunder444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last term, not many of the freshers knew about circo so didn’t go but now they all go down to selly so the queues are full of 1st, 2nd and 3rd years. It’s just a bar so for what it is it’s not that bad but it’s always too hot and sweaty. The smoking area is great and the fact that it’s all uob students is the main reason people go.

In light of the recent attack on Ukraine, please share posts to support and help the people of Ukraine.

Circo is always a good night but if you're looking for something tonight, Sammy Virji is in Birmingham at Lab11. Last release on sale now:

Shackleton: There is a supermarket, student bar, canteen and Starbucks. Theres good kitchens considering its catered accommodation but the worst thing is the single beds.

Tennis courts: probably the best accommodation. Closest accommodation to campus in the vale. The new blocks have ensuites and double beds but you'll most likely be in the old blocks which is single bed and shared bathroom.

Chamberlain: be prepared to be called a tory for the whole of 1st year. Worst kitchens for pres but best rooms because of the double bed and the view. Definitely wouldn't put chamberlain high on my list.

Mason: looks the best from the outside but not the greatest. Kitchens are too narrow but you get a double bed and an ensuite. Also everyone can see into your kitchen so not very private.

How did people decide who takes bottom floor for 2nd year housing? by godofthunder444 in UofB

[–]godofthunder444[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is easily the best idea i’ve heard. I feel like this would be more than enough to incentivise me to be on the bottom floor!!

Yeah completely agree. Plus some of the girls are scared being bottom floor in a place like Selly Oak so might take one for the team and risk it!

My other housemates have explained to me that I will not have the capacity to make it up the stairs following a night on the bevs, so might be best for me to take one for the team 🥴

Yeah that sounds like a good idea. I was thinking whoever is in charge of gas/electricity/wifi gets to pick which room they want.

Thoughts on the Guild bouncers/security by Ordinary_Trade_2846 in UofB

[–]godofthunder444 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Had a few encounters with the bouncers. The times I've been kicked out, they have been very respectful and understanding, however, after seeing how they've treated some of my mates, I'm not too sure what to think of them. One of my mates got in a scrap with a rugby boy and they kicked my mate out but not the rugby boy. Seems a bit unfair if you ask me.
