-- meant for the threadstarter

I have not seen a bin in a London station for at least 5 years, they took them all out for fear of people putting bombs in them. What stations are you referring to??

I asked this in the other thread in the general section twice, but have yet to receive an answer.

I hate bugs and fear spiders (and this is the only thing I can think of, that might actually deter me from going over there). I would like to try and keep them out as best as I can so any methods you guys have aside from the obvious (keep the place clean) would be very much helpful.

The only answer I can really give you is to live in a building that doesn`t offer entrances for insects, and to avoid leaving anything around that will attract them.
Basically, if you live in an older building with cracks and gaps, the only thing a screen or the like is going to block will be flies and most mosquitoes. The only "solution" I know of for cockroaches and centipedes is living in a new and well sealed building... Which isn`t really something you can do lightly.

Our place is a new building, concrete, no gaps, and still we will get the occasional small centipede coming through the drain pipes, and spiders will somehow manage to squeeze through the tiniest gaps at the base of the window screens (the tiny holes that allow water to escape). Gnats get in like magic, and mosquitoes will squeeze through any larger (slightly stretched, not torn or cut) holes in the screen.

No cockroaches or anything large though - a big change from when we lived in a wooden building where anything that could came in.

I'm a total weener when it comes to spiders too, but other then seeing them outside *yyyeeeerrrrgggggghhhhhh tunnels and trees :eek: * I've had the blessing of not having any in my apartment.

Did have a HUGE gnat problem for a while, dunno what that was all about, was right when I moved in and the old roommate probably did something. Got rid of them all and just had to move where we put the garbage, and start putting the banana's in the fridge.

And a huge cockroach flew in from outside when we came in one day.

HUGE.

I mean like Mothra Huge. Good Lawrd.

Lots of screaming was how we handled it, screamed and flailed at it until we got it back outside.

A yearbook for a university? No. High schools, of course.

There are usually quite a few students in a university, not everyone who enters the same year graduates the same year, classes aren`t split like in a high school or below... etc. I think it would be pretty hard to make a year book.
Individual groups (research labs, etc) will often make books or the like but I have never heard of a university yearbook.
