Advantages: Friends/People/Socialisin g, Cooked meals... even if they aren't always edible, Atmosphere/ New experiences and outlooks! , CLEANERS!

Disadvantages: Noise, Moussaka nights... unless you like meat with your oil, Food getting nicked

I lived in Lady Mountford Hall during my first year (5 years ago!)... this is my take on it....

LMH is divided into blocks of 3 floors with 12 rooms each. Each floor shares a kitchen, bath, shower, 3 toilets with a larger communal kitchen on the 2nd floor and a communal drying room on the third. Each block is mixed but each floor is either male or female.

The rooms are of a reasonably good size and the walls are NOT sound proof... so hope your neighbour does not live for the night!

It is a little bit of a pain sharing showers etc. but they are cleaned daily as are your rooms. Food inevitably goes "missing" from the fridge... especially alcohol!

THE ATMOSPHERE is what's really good about each block being seperate... you are like one big family... with the gossip being particularly tasty! (did you see that moose he...)....

On the other hand each block has its own atmosphere and I know some of the blocks just did not get along at all...

A further note.... If you are doing Dentistry/Veterinary science/Medicine... bring a good pair of ear plugs as the rest of the uni finishes exams just before you start...and it WILL be noisy... and they WON'T keep it down... you have been warned... but the situation is similar in the other catered halls...

CATERED HALLS ARE NOT THE PLACE FOR PEOPLE WITH LOW TOLERANCE THRESHOLDS... YOU WILL GET ANNOYED BY SOMETHING AT SOME POINT AND THE ABILITY TO SHRUG IT OFF IS ESSENTIAL...

Apart from that... halls are THE place to be in first year.... unless you'd rather know as few ppl as possible...
