Tuesday was Lonsdale extrav, now a fairly distant memory. The queue at the bar was massive and I really liked the Madness tribute. Gina G did about three songs, and I'm not sure I even recognised them by that point. There were some people in the crowd booing every act except the Queen tribute at the end, which everyone seemed to like, although a lot of people had left by that point. I stayed until about 3am(?) and jogged most of the way home with Daffy and Laurie.

My photos of Lonsdale extrav are on the web here

Wednesday evening A load of us went to the top Wetherspoons with Beckie and Jo to celebrate their graduation. After a bit of a faff trying to find a table big enough for all of us, we eventually managed to sit together. Some people went to Liquid afterwards, but I didn't.

Thursday evening Was the last Christian Fellowship of the year. It was led by people who were leaving, and they kept playing clips from Grease, which annoyed me. We split into groups and had to say something nice about another member of the group, who then had to say something nice about another member of the group, and so on. At the end, people hung around in the Chapel for quite a while before eventually making their way to Lonsdale bar before going to Bowland extrav. I stayed in Lonsdale bar for quite a while saying goodbye to Rachel, Rachel and Kim because I knew it was the last time I would see them, which was sad. Afterwards, I went and caught up with people at Bowland extrav, where the Oasis tribute band was playing their last few songs. We all went into the other bit of Bowland and had a few matches on the gladiator type thing, and Jim, Daffy and Laura(? and someone else?) each had a go on the rodeo bull. I took plenty of photos of this, so I will get my memory jogged as to who did what. Afterwards we went to Alex square and Gilly brought all the alcohol from her room, and we sat on the steps drinking it. I drank a four pack of Fosters ice as I was the only one who wanted it. Afterwards, some people went home, and the rest of us went back to Chaplaincy to (quietly) get our stuff before going to Pizetta. I shared a chicken and sweetcorn pizza with Daffy, and walked home, by this time it was light.

Friday actually began somewhere in the middle of Thursdays post.

Friday afternoon I finally went to get my results. My results from the exams in the first week were very poor, and I will have to come back for resits. My best results were in the Statistics exams, so I will do more Statistics modules next year than I had planned to. In the evening I went to Gradstock, which wasn't particularly exciting, and there was no real hope of getting to the bar. At about 11:35 I went to get the bus home because my legs were aching especially after dancing to Madness on Thursday. However, I know from Phils blog that at 1145 people went back to Martins flat anyway, so that was bad timing.

Sunday Went to a Chaplaincy service with no music group, no PA, no hymbooks and about ten people including Chaplains. Which was different.

Monday Spent most of the day clearing the stuff in my room up ready to move to my house for next year. I can't get my key to the place until Wednesday.
