Girton College must have the fittest people because they trek it into town every day.

I just remembered! I paid £18 to the gits that are Gillman and Soame and my matriculation photo hasn't turned up! Has anyone else received theirs? Or maybe Corpus are being lazy and incompetent again.

We've got loads left over. Do you want a Hertford one instead?

"Hmm, we've got x orders for matriculation photos in general. Let's not bother actually counting how many individual colleges asked for"

Ok. I'll cut a picture of my head out and stick it on.

We still haven't had the Lincoln Matriculation Photo either! We've got our individual prints and I gave a cheque last term for the big one but still no photo :hmpf:

I'm told Lincoln do one each year. Not sure who it is they swap with though. Oxymoron clearly does. As does sjeh. Not that he's ever posted, mind...

<starts frantically waving> I'm a Lincolnite too Binya, or are you trying to keep a low profile after your attempt to con me with Robin?!

We had a formal hall swap with Downing. They came bout a week ago (Hay went I'm sure) and I think we're going to Downing in 7/8wk.

Think it was Simon (B) who told me bout it, is all.

And we weren't trying to con you! Just hoping for a bit of a laugh. You didn't really fall for it anyway...

Was this something that happened at my birthday party? Or just something I missed in general??

Yes it was at Thirst. Binya, Simon & Matt thought it would be amusing to trick me into thinking that Robin from Oriel was a complete Novice rower and they were trying to get me talking to him continuously about rowing etc. Luckily, I was quite suspicious of the whole affair (felt like I was being 'set-up' in more ways than one!) and didn't lurch into a full blown rowing conversation. Anyways, when Robin & Binya left, Simon couldn't contain himself any more and he and Matt told me he was a Blues rower and and is in the crew for the Boat Race. So they're practical joke (I should have remembered Binya that you told me you were renowned for your jokes) kind of failed. But never mind, your party was wicked!!!!!!! :cheers: :biggrin:

Btw, Willa, I think Lincoln are indeed twinned with Downing - quite cool I think! Thanks for your rowing PM - sorry I haven't replied, been really busy! Hope it's all going well.
