Oxmas Party


Today was the last ever four lecture Friday of the term. After four consecutive hours of lectures all the Hertford Biologists met up at the KA with our tutors, Martin and Clive, for a Christmas lunch. Kirsty (my college mum) had organised it and even brought Christmas crackers. At the end of the meal Martin gave each of us a cute chocolate from Thorton's in the shape of a Christmas Yule log or pudding. I then went to the Old Lodge to give Alice and Amelia a hand with setting up stuff for interviews. In the late afternoon I cycled to Ab where Marja and Felicity were busy making Dutch pancakes for the Christmas party. Sarah went out to dinner at the MCR and people began to arrive a little later. By then the three of us had eaten so many pancakes that we were feeling slightly sick. The rest of the evening was spent in Felicity's room where loads of people eventually gathered to drink mulled wine and eat pancakes, Christmas cake and pudding.
