On Weds night we watched a photo presentation which was put together from a mix of everyone's photos, which was really nice.
I'm pleased to say that Digby (the soppy guard dog) managed to get the rat that was in our dorm :-) Unfortunately there are many more rats, and while I was cooking another flapjack one evening I saw one run along the worktop. I have to say I embarrassed myself and let out ...
