Alcohol does things to us all...
I know, I know. It was wrong. Trouble is once I've had a few beers I'll snog any bloke, no matter how ugly they are
dunno whether to be offended or not...? 
Having said that, you (like most of BTaP) were probably unsure what the hell was going on... - all I know is that my back ached for the best part of two days!

Yes - I do beleive that was after the champagne had started flowing - and you weren't exactly sober before that!
Still - good times etc

Hi Tom, nice to meet you at the weekend.
That photo you speak of is not very flattering of myself either my face looks like that of a porcelain doll
Me, Simon (the bert), Fatboy, and a few others went for lunch on Sunday afternoon, 5 mins before departing myself and Fatboy realised that we had spent 4 years at the same college together and not recognised each other. I think he had long hair then, and was known as 'The bicycle thrower'

That was so bizarre, good to see at least someone from Catz has good taste in motors. Your's sounded great, eve through the hangover.

As for the bicycle thrower.. Go on, do tell.. So, Catz.. As in Cambridge or Oxford? Used to hang around Catz in Cambridge a fair bit a few years ago, (well mainy the Anchor IIRC; wasn't a student there but knew a girl who was). Won't surprise you to know that in the survivors photo from the scarlet ball I am stood there with a pint of beer at about 8am.. Reckon that was about '96(veryish)..

Catz Oxford I'm afraid. Bicycle thrower stems from a night on the piss when I apparently tripped over a bike on the way back into college, had a barney about dumbasses leaving bikes everywhere, and threw it into the moat
(which I should add is only about 6ft wide and a foot deep). Not one of my clearest recollections by any means It's so bizarre to meet someone , 6 years later, who still remembers a story that, IIRC, happened about a year before he was there. Oh, the price of fame How truly surprising to hear of you last man standing with a bevvy

Had my tie done up too..
Did hear a story of someone marking out the shape of a body on the ground with white paint and coning it off as a pretend base jumping fatality, (the wall in question being about 6 or 8 foot high). Any idea if it was true? Classic if it was..

The elusive 'cycle hurler' scared us poor innocent first year undergrads
Simon, I can fair imagine you still standing at the end of the ball
The last ball I went to before I left was the Queens College ball, like yourself I had the stamina to reach the dawn still boozing - though made a fool of myself when gathering for the survivers photo when I spilt half a pint of Tetleys down the back of a girls (open back) dress. She was not well pleased as you can imagine 
and did not appreciate my drunken mumbling offer to pay for the dry cleaning 
Those were the days
Though prefer the propulsion of the Chim opposed to the Emmelle Classic 200 mountain bike I had then - though I did mod that abit - with michelin semi-slick road tyres, could really corner well (sorry I am sad ) Hope to see you at Pistonfest Fatboy

Not one I can say I've heard - I'll ask about though, someone must know it

I was an inmate from 1987-1990.
I don't remember much about those years, except that Websters was 60p a pint... Cheers

Hi Pat, I was at Catz from 1997-2001, did Metallurgy and Science of materials, what did you do. Beer was around 1.20 / pint then

Started 1996, hopefully finish in december
What I started Stella was £1.27 a pint, then they dropped all the decent beer on tap in the second year, so I stopped going there
