Strange as it sounds, Terry Deary's Groovy Greeks (a Horrible History) has diagrams and step by step instructions on how to turn a towel into a toga...

Jungle bop - green/brown clothes and green foliage face paint, or a leopard print cat suit :wink:

We weren't told in advance last year, were we? A shame, as I could have brought my tennis whites from home - although in the event I didn't go (because I felt the use of the word "ho" in the title was a trivialisation of the plight of prostitutes, and an objectification of women - I know, I know, I took it, and myself, far too seriously!).

Given that the title of the bop was "Golf Pros and Tennis Hoes", I should probably have stuck my tongue firmly in my cheek and gone as a gardening implement...

Because I'm on the JCR committee, I get to help plan and execute Freshers' Week - which will be my excuse for pretending I'm a Fresher again and having a whole lot of fun :biggrin:

At Queen's, we have an Alphabet Bop, which is basically the same as the 'Name Game'. My friend thinks I should go as the Inquisition or the Iron Curtain, but I'm having a hard time thinking how to actually do either costume. :wink:


Inquisition- black or brown dressing gown, a cross and a large mallet, with which you can hit people whenever you here them swearing/talking about sex/drugs/etc.

I didn't go to my freshers' bop. In fact, I didn't once set foot inside the College bar throughout my whole first year.

And second.

I wouldn't recommend looking through my history, either. :p: I'm just irreverant and have great faith in the power of google.

the theme for lincoln's bop is uniforms. I'm not sure how much of my mcdonald's uniform i'll wear yet though. See how elaborate everyone else is being, i guess.

How do you know that?

How? :eek: It's not that I keep my identity deliberately secret or anything - I'm happy for you to know who I am, otherwise I'd not mention my subject in my profile or talk about being on the committee in the Hilda's thread - but I am wondering what made you suddenly realise who I am. Did you analyse my grammar and punctucation? :wink: I'm curious as to who you think I am and why - PM me?

Unless you interpreted my comment about planning Freshers' Week as meaning I'm the Entz rep? Because I'm not - we all get to muck in. :biggrin:. I don't know the bop theme yet. I'm assuming we'll all discuss it when we meet next week, but actually Emma (the Entz rep, who is not me :p:) may have already decided, so why not email her?

History - I didn't notice we had lots of historians... isn't everyone on the committee studying Politics in some incarnation? :p: I think I'm the only person on the committee who doesn't know the difference between Milton Friedman and Milton Keynes...

What is the theme of your Freshers Bop?

Mine at LMH is 'under the sea'- i'm thinking of either a simple diver with goggles and swimming shorts, or a gangster with concrete boots on (but not sure how well i could do that). Any ideas yourselves.


Who're your parents? do you know?

it said as much in the freshers' pack. Look on the page from the entz team.
freshers' pack entz team letter
Details of Freshers' Week will follow when you arrive, but we can tell you now that it will end on the Friday with you[sic] first college bop, a well-loved Oxford tradition. The theme is 'UNIFORMS' so get thinking of a costume!
