Rumours and Myths and Legends Oh My!

1. Someone once found a homeless person sleeping in her shed. She was too afraid to wake him up so left him there for the whole day. Her and her flat mates watched the shed out of a bedroom window for most of the night. The next morning he had vanished - no one had seen him leave, but he had left beer cans and a smell of wee.
2. A girl got Chlamydia in Fuzzy's when the condensation on the roof dripped into her eye.
3. Sam Heuston - the Big Brother 6 contestant and "glamour model" - attended uni in Oxford.
4. On moving into their new house and doing the inventory, the new residents were surprised to be adding "dead dog" to the list of things found in the shed.
5. All good houses are gone by the beginning of December.
6. Housemates came home one day to find all their stuff being carted out of the house and into a bailiff's van. The landlord hadn't been paying the mortgage so their property as well as the house was taken to make up for it!
7. Six bedroom house on Divinity Road, comes with all the usual amenities: living room, kitchen, garden and bathrooms, and an old, slightly deaf, man named Bert, who lives in the front room and rarely comes out.
8. If you opened all the fire escapes in Clive Booth halls, a portal to another dimension opens.
9. In 2004 it was rumoured Keira Knightley was enrolling at Oxford Brookes…unfortunately this was clearly a total lie.
10. Housemates didn't listen to the landlord who told them to keep the heating on low over the winter otherwise the pipes would freeze. Housemates ignored him and left it off whilst they went home. Housemates came back to flooded house as the pipes had burst. The house was declared in such ruin it needed to be torn down and seeing as they had ignored the landlord's instructions, the housemates were liable for the damage.
11. A lecturer left Oxford Brookes to pursue a full time career in MI6 as an intelligence officer.
