    Just wondering, its coming up on my timetable as being in room G109?
    Anyone know if that's right or wrong? Isn't G109 a small tutorial room??

    Thanks in Advance!

    I think so, but it could be a small class! They're the best kind, y'know ;)

    Good old Millsy! Sound man, bit eccentric but sound! Yeh, it's the long room in the Geography corridor with the old map reading tables (i.e. it's the third door on your right iirc).

    I emailed Ger and pretty much proclaimed my love for his class!! Seen as offering people on boards a mars bar to drop their place to give to me didn't work! ha ha..
    he emailed me back and said he'd made a few places available seen as about 7 people emailed sayin they couldn't get in to it.
    It'd be worth giving him an email if you still want to do it ? because yesterday in class he asked was everyone able to register pretty much suggesting if you said no he might be able to get you in!
    He's such a sound bloke its unreal!

    Sound, very sound. If you're genuinely stuck with something he'll help you out. He comes off a bit unapproachable but he's generally grand. Lectures are very interesting, he does manage to get the difficult material across quite well. Actually, you'd have to literally do nothing to fail his module. I would rank him as probably one of the best lecturers in Geography.

    +1 to that.
    Although, to be fair, the standard of Geography 'lecturers' in UCD is very good.

    Yeh but I was thinking more of the Physical Geography lecturers in there, and there's only three of them. I'd probably place Arnold Horner or even Willie Nolan higher (these men are legendary, the wealth of knowledge they have is infestistimal and they were always good to chat to).
