Collingwood madness
The pictures above were  taken at Collingwood megaformals - big nights we have in college about three times per term. Everyone dresses up, drinks alot and we even get nice food (those of you who've visited Collingwood know what a rarity that is!). The other person in the picture is my next door neighbour in halls, Claire.
I can't remember if this photo was taken before or after drinking lots of wine at the meal of the megaformal. The megaformal food was actually the best meals college served up, not that anyone really noticed as they were too busy playing drinking games -
"Do you know the rules of the game?!!".
At the winter solstice formal, the theme was "Fancy dress". I went as a Musketeer, but Carolyn and Dave went as "The National Elf Service". The then proceeded to get wrecked. It was on this night that Dave had his room stolen. He got it back later though.
These two photos have a story to them. It should tell you everything you need to know about Mike and Rumman's relationship. In an earlier bet, Mike had lost his car to Rumman. In order to win his car back, Mike bet that he'd beat Rumman at pool. If Mike won, he got his car, but if he lost, he still got his car, and he got his head shaved. Guess what happened... My room was never the same again - the photo on the right is the first look Mike got of his new bald appearance, and the shock on his face is quite plain to see!
And now, the rest of the photos from the Winter Solstice.
Ok folks - this is Lucy, shown here wearing Mike's head. Well, the head of his costume at least. Lucy was my housemate for my second year at college, which was also her second year, but her first in the subject she graduated in. A mad Theologian, who thought that Engineering would be fun, she made the switch to Theology at the start of my second year, and was rewarded with a 2:1. A good switch I guess :)
Now for Mike, here minus his sailor head - he went to this night dressed as Popeye. There are far too many tales to tell about Mike, and here the after-effects of his close encounter with Rumman's clippers are plain to see. Not quite the psycho he looks, but definately a total alkie.
Eek - just realised I sound like I'm writing an obitury. Ah well... next up...
This wonderful shot shows myself, Lucy and Mike, along with Andrea (the one who doesn't look at all like Robin Hood). Another second year housemate, with an unfortunate love for Doncaster Rovers A.F.C. She's really cool, and made this night one to remember.
Lucy and Andrea seemed to have a great night at the Winter Solstice, and, unlike Claire, could remember most of it the next day !!!
The night all Mike's dreams came true. Or not, as the case may be. The one on the left is Mary, the worlds greatest Vodka drinker, and part time exhibitionist (you know what I'm on about Mary :) )
The Winter Solstice was a great night. Once Andrea arrived (late as ever, with Lucy's costume in tow) they decided to wreak havoc on college by threatening everyone. Andrea "Come on then!" Smith and Lucy "I've got a stick and I'm not afraid to use it" Marfleet were feared far and wide, until Andrea decided it'd be more fun to go surfing instead.


Mike, in a drunken, zombie-like state, decided that stealing Dave's room would be fun, and moving it into Dave's other room would be even better. This photo shows the act in full, gory detail.
More pictures will be added here as and when I get chance to scan them...  They pictures can be enlarged by clicking on them by the way...
