Haha count yourself lucky! I got suspended (rusticated - that's a real Housey word!!) in early 1990 for having a girl in my Dormitory. I'm not sure the Head would have been quite so lenient if he'd known I had broken into Barnes A and woken said girl up before going back with her to Maine A...

Ah, well, you see, there you have it; CH didn't go co-ed until long after I'd gone. These girls were from Horsham High, Farlington, etc. etc., mostly met during theatre productions. It was absolutely verboten without specific permission, but I don't recall Mr Higgins ever questioning me on the subject. Also had a bit of a problem at Farlington when we stayed rather late in the girls dorms one Sunday, but that's another story.
Come to think of it, I also spent a bit of time in Helen Watters' company, but then who didn't...
TBH, Angela, I'm not sure how much of my experience at Hertford is printable. Bear in mind that we're only talking about a few visits, and I was 'spoken for'.
Though I blithely waltzed around the place, I sort of suspect that behind the scenes there was some 'monitoring' of the situation, but then I was a Housey boy, and a friend of the Head girl's brother.
Sadly, no pics from that time to share.
PS: I thought you got sent down from Oxford and rusticated from Cambridge (and Eton), same thing, different words. Now who's a pedant?
