365.81

Mum's birthday. Went to see her and, er, she made me a bacon butty.

365.80 (bbq)

First barbecue of the year! Took a while to light it though...

365.79

We had another murder mystery night in an Italian restaurant in town. Awesome food, but the night went to Joe, who obeyed our instructions to 'man up' and wear a dress and heels.

365.78 (fairy lights)

There's been so much sunshine my solar powered fairy lights are finally working!

365.77 (sunny seminar)

The sun came out and our lecturer let us take our seminar outside. Good times ;)

365.76

On St Patrick's night, ended up in Trev, which doesn't even serve Guinness despite having the mirror.

365.75

Moved the boat to Galgate.

365.74

Penny in my pint :(

365.73

Saturday was just full of essay writing then an early night with the Guardian.

365.72

Nat assured me that the best way to write essays was with cider and snacks. She's a third year, I couldn't argue.

365.71

Spider on my window = spring is in the air.

365.70

Trev brought back the £5 wine bottle offer. We snapped it up.

365.69

Blowing and rattling those instruments in an event to raise awareness of ethical investment.

365.68

This is what £50 worth of musical instruments look like.

365.67

Another pub quiz victory! Wine and Liquorice Allsorts were the prizes this time.

365.66 (beer fest)

Went to a Beer Fest in Lancaster Town Hall. Ooh, look at the size of that organ!

365.65

There was an event for International Women's Day and I helped put up this inflatable and smash the patriarchy. All in a day's work.

365.64

Election day. Despite my awesome publicity skills, Pete didn't win.

365.63 (tshirts)

My t-shirts came!

365.62

Stayed in Trev til closing time, again.

365.61 (Hustings)

Monday night we attended hustings for the Student Union elections. We treated the event with the gravitas it deserved, by sitting at the back and playing drinking games.

365.60 (pub quiz)

We won the pub quiz! Ferrero Rocher and a crate of Carling!

365.59

Gas powered straighteners. Waste of money. No way do they heat up to 215 degrees. Taking them back to Boots.

365.58

Moved the boat to Galgate. The sun teased me by shining for five minutes but by the time I moored up, I was frozen.

365.57

'Come as a country' social in Lancaster. Very, very funny night.

365.56

Rare visit from Dan from Cambridge, rarer sight of him with money at the bar.

365.55

Someone playing a musical saw.

365.54

Poker night in Lancaster. Didn't win.

365.53

Mum's birthday. I get fed (chicken breast stuffed with black pudding and wrapped in bacon in a garlic and cream sauce.... drool...).

365.52

Reclaim the Night demo in Manchester.

365.51

Cupcakes from the Yummy Cupcake Shop in Lancaster (they live up to their name).

365.50

... but by Thursday morning some of us had moved on to this place and it was a lot less civilized. Almost pre-historic, in fact.

365.49

Wednesday night started off with a very civilized cheeseboard...

365.48

Cakes at Feminist Society.

365.47

Some people call it fishing, I call it dredging :(

365.46

Night fishing.

365.45 (college or cult?)

Met up with some friends who were on a college-organised bar crawl. Went to this bar where EVERYONE was wearing the same white t-shirt (the guy in the red was one of the organisers). I had to sweettalk the bouncer a bit to get in cos I wasn't wearing the t-shirt.

Felt the all-too-familiar feeling of being an atheist at Mass. At first I put it down to my age, but thinking on there was never a time I wanted to do this sort of thing.

365.44 (otter?)

Finally got a picture of one of the creatures that swims past my boat at night. All the info I can find makes me think this is an otter, but the bloke on the boat next to me thinks its a mink... and has been trying to shoot it.

If it is a mink, I might get an air rifle myself.

As soon as I took this picture it swam off with a huge splash, I nearly fell in with surprise, then he/she resurfaced, looking straight at me with a fish in its mouth.

365.43 (uvula)

My uvula. It is swollen. Ow.

365.42

Spent toooo long in Trev.

365.41

Brrr.

365.40

Home sweet frozen home.

365.39

Think I'll stay another night in my mum's...

365.38

More spinning.

365.37

Classroom where I worked with the creepy crawlies for a day. Why do we stop decorating stuff so colourfully when we grow up?

365.36

Finished the brain-numbing French book, started this which my parents lent to me.

365.35

Watched Everton knock Liverpool out of the FA Cup in a friends house (ITV didn't cut to a commercial break during the goal for us). Then played Wii for the first time and immediately knocked out two grown men in the boxing game.

365.34

I have to read this French book by tomorrow. It's as dull as the cover would suggest.

365.33 (snowman)

Snow! Made this guy on my roof. I actually had some little Chanteney carrots in my cupboard for the nose (I don't usually own vegetables).

365.32

After losing at the drinking game that we played after the murder mystery party, Sunday was pretty much a write-off. I did manage to surface from my bed long enough to do some spinning though. I'm getting quite pleased with my technique.
