This week World Naked Bike Ride organisation sent me more naked pictures. They quoted Emma Jackson, a 28-year old veteran rider, I presume. I thought she went too far though in her review of the 67-man event. To put it in her words: "The ride is becoming as essential an aspect of the British summer as Glastonbury or Wimbledon.”"
In other news Alcuin has become the American college. The JCR Chair, Wihl, seems to have stopped one short of announcing prom queen - but instead will be unveiling the new Alcuin Awards at the ball this year. Favourite to win the competition for "Most Embarassing Moment" is a gentleman called Jonathon. He's the poor bastard who ran into a brick wall and "split his face" - according to the friend who took pains to nominate him.
And finally Ryan Bennett, Vanbrugh chair, told a yorker reporter this week that if there was a shortage of rooms in the new Bleachfields accommodation then the new students will be thrown in Wentwoth or in Franklin House. Let's hope Bennett gets more for students than what happened 2005 disaster with Alcuin Freshers. I don't want to be woken-up by Vantworth Venom.
Just for the record, Vanbrugh college has been conducting a similar awards ceremony at our Christmas ball for many years, yet don't seem to have received any comments on our Americanisation? I think you might be being a little harsh on Louis!
