That's a valid point - come to think of it, now I can remember when a
teacher of mine bought some GroupSave CDRs for herself and a sizeable
group of 6th form students (me included) in Harpenden and took us
straight to Russell Square tube station with those very tickets (without
passing through any ticket gatelines on the way of course). We had to
wait a little while while she tried to get tickets to get us through the
exit gateline.

Visiting the British Museum?

It was a visit to the University of London (near SOAS) as part of a
Modern Languauges A-Level course.

Erm... SOAS *is* part of the University of London! Was it Senate House?

I know that, except that I didn't know whether the particular building I
went to was SOAS territory or not.

Yes - that's the one.

Senate House isn't really "SOAS territory" any more than Birkbeck is. It's
owned by the central university, with several central institutes based in
it.
