Monday 14th November:

 

Sam deserted us for the medics, but assured us he’d return to provide us with some drunken entertainment. So with that in mind we headed for a quiet couple at the mighty Court. The girls opted for a few drinks back at Anna’s room, whilst Mel and co promised to meet us later. After the first five minutes, it became blatantly obvious that a ‘couple’ was totally out of the question.

 

By the time the girls had arrived, unsurprisingly bin liner was already at the stage of lying down on the benches at the Court, and making numerous token comments. With Anna, Beth and Steph having departed to Huntley Street (where Sam was already well on his way) the drinking games started. Bin Liner’s rule of using cricket symbols for 4s and 6s soon created anarchy, with the snakebite flowing all too freely. After getting bored with everybody losing the special number game, and bin liner starting to moan that he “feels awful,” it was decided that we should move on.

 

Some brave and courageous individual suggested a quick drink at the Northumberland Arms, which is ideally placed at just a short crawl from our usual Court territory. The drink was a flatliner, known to be the death of many a pub goer for years. Watching them been prepared was for many (bin liner) a traumatic experience, and when it came to the drinking, the same person spilt his drink conveniently over the bar. Deliberate or not, the head of punishments and appraisals was quickly on the scene to dish out a much needed putting down on da bin, now in full drunken mode. It was time to move on.

 

A quick taxi for five delivered us to Boardwalk/cheapskates/whatever. After a quick flash of ID, £1, and a brushing down by the scary female bouncer, we were in. as usual, after rendezvousing with the girls, Mary and G-sus set the example by heading straight to the bar, and began sussing out prices and numbers. Unfortunately bin liner had other ideas; he was off to the toilets to be sick. I am shamed to admit that gin shots were the order of the day, but don’t worry the mighty Sambuca will be back on the agenda soon, just as soon as its smell stops making everyone of us gag. Ridiculous dancing followed as usual, each one of us strutting an outrageous grove, with some inevitably putting it off better than others, mentioning no names (Binny!).

 

Thankfully savage was available to walk us all home after a very enjoyable night out. The following morning was summed up by Sam at 9am: “Bill mate, I’m devastation!”

 

Bill

 

Monday 21 November 2005

 

The crew returned from lectures to the news that the long anticipated Hoodies had arrived, thanks to excellent work by Mary! Over dinner, plans were assimilated some albeit ambitious (a spontaneous trip to France being up there). Dinner was followed by a gathering in Gods pad, where Mel and Emily straightened Bills hair, much to the delight of the others. Everyone got ready and disembarked for a direct walk to The Court, sporting there hoodies.

            A few odd looks were all part of the game as 7 people turned up in matching hoodies. Drinks were ordered from Ashly who found the hoodies very amusing! Drinking games followed including the usual shoe drinking. Not pleasant! After much debate, we then decided to head to cheapskates at Moonlighting on Greek street via Tescos. A challenge to buy the most ridiculous item resulted in Bill and Mel purchasing tin foil and some batty fruit (can’t remember the name of it). Omar was wrapped in tin foil while the fruit was passed around until it split into many pieces. A short queue did nothing to dampen spirits, as the group ploughed through a packet of cookies.

            Inside, more drinks were purchased followed by the usual ridiculous dancing (some more than others..). On route back, we stopped at Burger King for a pound saver Bacon Double Cheese Burger-it’s good to have it back. We then opted to walk back after some debate and ended the night where we began…gods room.

 

Omar

 

Thursday 27th October 2005

 

          In an attempt to save money, we started this night in Ross's room with 2 bottles of Sambuca. On the attendance sheet, we had: Bill, Oli, Sam, Omar, Mel, Anna, Nooshie, Steph, Aman, Ross, Emily and Mesara. 20 minutes later and 2 bottles in, we set off for the Court-our home away from home. More Sambucas were enjoyed (“enjoyed” being a very loose term). We were joined here by Savage who made his intentions clear by downing 6 shots of Sambuca at once.

       Bill, Sam and Oli all had their eyes on the record, along with Steph and Anna. We moved out in search of another venue and finally ended up at Huntley Street. More shots were downed  <<<PART MISSING>> got a taxi from Tottenham Court Road to the Rocket with Mel, Bill and Sam. Some “After Shocks” were had-anything to escape that "lovely" taste of Sambuca. The girls joined us for a bit of disco dancing-an integral part of any evening. Then, for some unknown reason, we were walking/stumbling back to Ramsay Halls, were Bill had a close encounter with the number 24 bus (to Hampstead Heath if your interested). Special mention must go to Bill and Sam who had 21 Sambucas each, smashing the previous record or at least they thought.... unfortunately, they didn’t make it to breakfast the next day which under section 5 of the 1066 Treaty of Bills Room results in their disqualification from any record attempt.

 

Bin Liner

Previous nights-classic moments

          We can’t really remember what happen before last week so here’s some of the most memorable moments.

  • One of the first nights included Omar saying "Bill, mate, the Sambucas haven’t even effected me" followed by him falling off the bar. He later disappeared home and was in bed at 9pm-his earliest night.
  • Drinking games with the Americans at Astor college which god cruised to victory over gsus.
  • god starting on a group of 50 LSE students on the way to the Windyer. Oli and Omar quickly silenced him. The odds were heavily against us- 50 on 3.
  • Bill, Omar and Sam falling into bins on the way back from a Munchies outing to Burger King near Oxford Street (why we didn’t choose one of the closer ones will never be known).
  • god getting us chucked out of Walkabout at Temple after throwing an ice cube at the DJ and striking him right between the eyes (a damn good shot). This night was enjoyed by Oli, god, Mel, Omar and Amelia. Many dares and rollliepolies were initiated-getting chucked out was inevitable.
  • Sams night of shame-ending up lying outside Goodge Street station after sports night. Fortunately, we understood his rather disjointed phone call and managed to get him home, interrupting 2 hotties from 2nd or 3rd year who were surely planning to have their way with him. 
  • Annas night of shame-returning home drunk and falling asleep in the corridor. Nush attempted to get her to bed only to be heckled with "Nush, your bang out of order".
  • Olis night of shame- Being sick in front of Alice. Suspicions were raised when Oli mysteriously opted for a shower at 2 in the morning.
