Hi! well basically gannochy is divided into two blocks - north block and south block (very imaginitive names i know). north block has 4 floors, each with its own kitchen, and south block 2 floors with only 1 kitchen, although another one is being built this summer, due to be finished "soon". room 36 is on what is currently known as the italian floor - lots of europeans, and has a really great atmosphere, i think most people are leaving though so there will be a new crowd in september. im on the floor below you, so pop down to the kitchen below yours and say hello! room 67 is in the south block. it depends on the year, but this year the 2 blocks had pretty seperate social lives, bar a couple of exceptions. all rooms, except the subwardens are pretty much the same size, although afew are bigger - they have all been booked up in advance though. I really can't give you much advice except be friendly etc, spend time in the kitchens and common room and dont get too stressed out about the state of the place because it will only get you down if you let it.
by the way, i have never been in a toilet in gannochy that has a window - how have i missed out on this?
Be good to yourself because nobody else has the power to make you happy.
