Gosh Peter , I went to Brunel by choice to read psychology , I had a great time although all the girls I dated wanted deep and meaningful conversations when I had a few alternative ideas.
I was there from 69 to 74, doing a 4 year thin sandwich. The first year was at the Acton Campus, we moved to Uxbridge for the 2nd to 4th. When I arrived on the Uxbridge campus it was, as is said today, work in progress. The Biology/Chemistry building was brand new, the library but a dream, as was on campus halls and girls.. I think the ratio was 12 to 1...
I lived at home, near Esher and drove in every day, Surrey County Council paid my fees and £1.45 a day public transport rate, which just about kept the car on the road. Living off campus was a two edged sword, I didn't engage much in university social life, but I knew where to find girls at home...
Happy days!
