84 Thief Lane

In the Summer of 2010, 84 Thief Lane (often abbreviated 84TL) joined the list of significant YSTV Residences. During the 2010-11 academic year, six of its seven inhabitants were members of YSTV, and at its peak it housed the holders of four officer positions - a quarter of the entire officership at the time. Many socials were held or began there (largely due to it being the Social Sec's home, handy location, its useful living room and the fact there were no non-YSTV people to get annoyed/be scary) including the Oscars socials and several birthdays.

For 2011-12, the only non-YSTV housemate was replaced by another member, making a full seven YSTV member house. During this year, frequent visits were also made by one time Deputy Technical Director Alena Denisova (Tim's other half), as well as Station Director Sarah Pickles and Head of Presentation Steven Perring, who lived in nearby Norman Street.

In 2012-13, the visits were the turn of Alex Williams, Greg's other half, and occasionally YUSU Welfare sabb legend Bob Hughes who lived a couple of doors down the street. Everyone loves Bob.

Being a fairly close-knit society, it was no surprise that for 2012-13 three outgoing housemates were replaced by more YSTV members.
