By QP you mean the Quiet Pub (McGlaughlan Rooom Pub)? As far as the fine establishments go, I remember that Alfies was first called the Underground, and they had a naming contest in my second year. When they located a hair salon above it in the JDUC, it got called "A Cut Above Alfies" very funny. I also hung out at Clarke Hall, the Grad Pub, the Tap Room, and the Sportsman's.
I remember the days from September to October being gloriously autumnal. Brilliant sunshine, cool, sharp weather. Beautiful women everywhere (Pain... this is the hotness you refer to?) but then November arrived, and the greyness of rainsoaked concrete and limestone became pervasive. Almost depressing the way the mood of the weather aligned itself coincidentally with the shift of school work to mid-terms and finally the mad dash to Christmas exams. All the buildings in Kingston seemed to take on the waterdripped grey look.
