The grass is always greener....when its not in london

It was gloriously sunny again today, I didn't even need my jacket! It would seem that summer is finally on its way. I just wish the grass was.

The university of east London is still a fairly new campus (opened in 2000) and it seems to me they over did it with the concrete. For a uni in quite a pretty setting next to the river (if you ignore the huge airport) it seems ludicrous that they don't have more greenery.

What little green there is, is so little and puny it's hardly worth bothering about. You just know your a country gal when your on the phone to your best friend complaining about how the grass is crap.

The only bit of decent sized not crap grass has been cordoned off with a silly wooden + wire fence!!! Are they trying to drive me round the bend? When it's sunny I love to lie outside with a book on grass, can't lie on the concrete people give you weird looks and then you start to cook.

I eventually found out what it had been cordoned off. Last summer apparently the students killed it by being on it constantly.

Can't help but think at least it was getting used! Where are wire cutters??...
