Open day at Stirling University today… impressive place. Very clean. Nice and chilled. My boy loved it.

Many, many years ago I went there for a tour as a prospective student. Whilst going round the accommodation our guide proudly proclaimed that the student accommodation on campus was built to the same design as a Swedish women's prison.
A few years later a friend was doing a summer residential course and verified the story.

I studied there and lived on campus for two of my four years. They were really happy, fun, contented four years. Great place to study.

I was there 77 to 79. Got chucked out. Turned out I liked the place a lot more than the studying.
