We were going to go to Pembroke yesterday, actually. Myself, my lovely college sister (how is too nice and refused to go home even though she blatently didn't want to be there), and a fellow medic called Yuqi were randomly wandering between colleges all night. I was embarrassing them by speaking to random people (I do that a lot, especially drunk and I'd had a couple of bottles of wine and other stuff :eek: ) We thought there was a party in a field (that sounded cool, both literally and idiomatically so we hooned out to a Trinity annex which wasn't a field - it was just called something field :frown: I didn't like the Trinity ppl too much - they seemed well stuck up but King's people were bouncy :smile:

Pembroke and Clare watch out because I intend to pay you both a visit sometime soon! :smile:

I neither know nor care, though if it is for a wee red one or something, it's probably ok for a big wood ant thing..

That lecture who did this is following Fermi's footsteps.

They're really annoying in the first week, they get more sensible, it's just to try and get you to think

I know, I can't do estimations. I can't think like Enrico. Nobody think like Enrico anymore. :frown:
anyone care to estimate the weight of an elephant? A mountain? And the number of piano tuners in Cambridge?
Reply 8179
An Elephant weight 8 Neltons, where 1 Nelton is approximately 1/8th the weight of an elephant

There are 2 goggles of piano tuners in cambridge, where 1 goggle of piano tuners is equal to half the number of piano tuners in cambridge
