Quoth the Raven
A Goodbye to York

Many more last things have happened now.

Monday night quiz - we got 22m17 last night, with a record-equalling team of 12 people. We only got one question wrong in the second half, and that was only because Helen doesn't speak loudly enough. The quiz seemed particularly easy tonight - I'll miss Ian's eccentric question style. Particularly pleased with getting "Which country is the mass of a piece of sporting equipment?" The Bile Beans turned out to pay tribute to our glorious victory. And I won £6.05!

City walls - Sunday was a rather nice day, so I took the opportunity while my parents were out to go for a final walk round the walls. I've done this walk only once before, and it's excellent for seeing the whole of York. There were so many memories of the last 4 years - Toto's, Ujala, Terry's, Trinity Lane, 4 High Petergate, the Minster, the RI, the Wheel, NU... Walking into town beforehand was the same - Goodramgate seemed to have a lot of places that sparked off remembrances of things past. Mediterranean barbers, Fast Frame, the Lime House, the Thai place, Happy Valley, Little Italy, the other Italian place in the Tudor building, and of course the OWS.

Friends - goodbyes to Dave R and Jonny F.

My flat's quite depressing at the moment. It's almost empty, and surprisingly echoey. I'll be glad in many ways when this week is over.
