Skyfall
December 4, 2012
Saturday saw the annual OTC Christmas dinner; dinner jackets, self-tied bow ties and martini’s at the reception. Theme you say? Skyfall!

November 27, 2012
Today marks my reaching of the grand old age of 21, and as one of my friends pointed out, I’m now legal in America! This didn’t stop me being ID’d in Wetherspoons at 4 in the afternoon to buy myself a Chicken Tikka…. WHAT? Typically I had nothing on me but they said only one of …

Making Memories
October 16, 2012
Nothing will compare to your time at uni; it’s probably your first taste of responsibility and first time without your parents breathing down your neck, watching your every move. It’s something you have to make the most of, one day you’ll settle down and get a ‘proper job’, you’ll be a slave of your work …
