Comment on Sodexo: below par catering and a dubious past by Samuel Agini

This is definitely something we’ll keep an eye on. It doesn’t help that “After numerous attempts to contact their head office press office, Sodexo were unavailable for comment on these issues”.

Great article. It would be interesting to see what the Sodexo regional management staff have to say about this, especially the fact that students find their staff rude and their prices way too high. If there’s any chance of a follow-up article, get on it!

Comment on Album review: Tiesto – Club Life: Volume Two Miami by Stuart Kenny

Completely disagree I must say! I thought the album had a great mix of songs that provided a banging summer feel.

It definitely is not just for the ‘U.S Market’ in my mind, many of the songs are universal tunes that will set any crowd in any country bouncing.

Comment on Wish I Weren’t Here by Gerard Madill

Hmmmm. Enjoyed the article very much. It explains a lot! I always knew you liked your home comforts and that you feel a bit awkward when you’re abroad, but I didn’t realise how much. But you loved Copenhagen, I seem to remember – didn’t you? And that was quite hot and none of us could speak the lingo. (I seem to remember struggling to get beyond ‘Taler du Engelsk?’). I think you’d have been okay crossing the road in Paris when the wee man was red, but I suspect the sentencing regime you described is accurate for Germany! I nearly fell foul of that a few times as a young man.
So – are you coming to Spain for Christmas then?

I totally agree with what has been said about the Pathfoot Cafe. On occasion I have been overcharged almost double when the prices were clearly printed in front of the food counters. It was at a time when I was watching my money and only had a soup and roll and a baked potato to fill me up, but I had to practically fight to get the girl to give me the correct change, all the while with her sulking and not being pleasant at all. I don’t think she has said two words to me since that day.

Unless you get a break between 12 and 1 in Pathfoot, you really are limited for what to have for lunch.

I work closely with a group in uni who uses the conference catering quite a lot. We pay quite a bit for not very much. The food they provide is nice, but not really the type you want to be giving students for a focus group. And any food that isn’t eaten all gets thrown out after due to health and safety. It is such a waste.

Pathetic Album. For the U.S. Market Only . . .

Comment on RUGBY UNION | Edinburgh’s dream is over, but it’s only beginning for Scottish Rugby by Stuart Kenny

I have been delighted to watch Scottish club rugby grow to a whole new level this year. Having been to quite a few Edinburgh matches, the atmosphere at the games is getting better by the week, and this is down to the club’s success.

I know some Scottish players are leaving Glasgow or Edinburgh, but I really hope the teams continue to perform at such a high level, and with players like Duncan Weir, Greig Laidlaw, Lee Jones and Stuart Hogg hitting their prime, it is looking good!! With great club form comes improved international form too. Or here’s hoping at least…
