Any shower facilities for student use?

    A few mornings each week I jogging up around Dangan.

    For the past couple of years I've used the Kingfisher afterwards for a shower, but I never use the gym or pool in there.

    Anyway money being tight this year I was wondering are is the other option available around the campus for showering rather than paying €250 for this service.
    I know there are a shower couple of self contained shower unit about the place, there's one in the basement of the Quad but it seems to have restricted acess control(it now appears these toilets themselves are restricted also, as the man has fitted one of those electronic assess panel gizmos on the entrance door, maybe users are required to register their student id cards for access).

    Anyone in the know?

    You can gain access by going to Security office and asking them to authenticate your ID card.

    The Engineering Building has a changing room with showers on the ground floor. Just go through the main entrance, turn left and its down the corridor on the left hand side.

    The SU secured access to showers a few years back in the Quad and Cairnes. As snubbleste has said, you need to get your ID card activated to get access. IIRC, there are also showers in Áras Moyola.

    You paid €250 a year just to use the showers. Brings a new meaning to the term golden shower :pac:

    Go raibh maith agat.

    After a bit of reconnaissance the engineering building showers fit the bill.
    There is however a pretty foul smell of dirty socks in that particular toilet block; a couple of strategically placed magic trees may be required!

    I'll also have to get the id card authenticated for the toilets in the Quad, I keep feeling that someday I'll walk in there and a couple of scantily clad high class prostitutes will be snorting lines of coke of the counter top under the expansive mirrored wall, and I want in when that sh!t is going down!
