Is that Goswell Road? Don't try what I did and try to go down the back
stairwell on the East side. You get stuck in there and have to call
someone to let you out. That'll teach me to try to find shortcuts!

Trouble is they let anyone with a plastic/RFID pass sign any number of
other people in with paper passes without a confirmation process - so if
one dodgy person lets a few other nasties in, bye-bye lots of kit...
