... girly scream and fled the kitchen. We got the dog in there but he couldn't find it, and then everyone went to bed and left me with the rat and the flapjack in the oven! Well I'm afraid that the rat won that round, and I just turned the oven off and ran to the dorm! :-) The flapjack was still nice though!

This morning a few of us got up at 4.45am for a sunrise walk, which was really nice. We walked to a ...
