How to get to... The Robinson Grad House

There's two ways to get to the Robinson Grad House, as follows:

• Boring way: (roads; you get to park your bike closer to my room)

Head for Robinson, and turn up Adams Road. Keep going and take the first left onto Sylvester Road (just after a black-and-cream house, which is 6 Adams!). Immediately turn left again and enter the gravel car-park. There's a nice ornament constructed of bikes at the far end of the car-park; go up to it and turn right, and you'll see the Grad House in front of you on the left. Press buzzer 15, and I'm on the first floor.
• Pretty way: (gardens!)

Head for Robinson, park your bike out the front if applicable. Go through the p'lodge and bear left as you enter Front Court, towards G staircase. Go through G and down the steps, out into the gardens. Follow the path round and over the bridge. Take the second right-hand turn, not the one that's immediately after the bridge; follow it round through the bushes and go left after going through the pretty arch. When the path opens up again you'll see two houses; the closer one (on the left) is the Grad House. Press buzzer 15, and I'm on the first floor.
