Ah, so the roots of Jeffrey Archer's problems have been revealed!
I did find the concept of shared bathrooms a bit odd. It's something I have no trouble with on a temporary basis, due to childhoods on campsites, but the thought of it long term seems weird; maybe those of us who have been to boarding schools feel much more at home with the idea than us comprehensive kids used to our private toilets complete with luxury Andrex and stack of newpapers (for Dad)?

I saw some vile 60s blocks at the back of Christ Church too, so be warned. I understand Magdalen has the nicest accommodation but also the most expensive. We stayed in the St Edmunds Hall annexe earlier in the week, which is a B&B in summer and this was very nice, and clean too (Isis House if anyone wants a travel tip for next summer).
