It’s almost here – the event you’ve all been waiting for. The bands have all been announced, the decorations have been made, and soon enough Barker House Farm and The Winning Post will be transformed into the densest of jungles, with roaring animals and thick foliage. The Kaiser Thiefs are our headlining act, the official [...]

Hey guys! We’re back with our final magazine of this academic year, although we will be back in Fresher’s term for another two magazines. So don’t worry, this isn’t a final goodbye, rather a ‘see you soon’. I’m sure you’re pleased we’ll be bothering you again next term, we certainly are! For all those of [...]

If you ever need to have a confidential chat or some help with any issue, feel free to visit members of the JCR during their Office Hours and hopefully they’ll be able to help you out.. They’ll be in the JCR Office at the end of the corridor past the mail area in the Porter’s [...]

By now all of you should know what I’m talking about – the massive pyrotechnic display that was the premature demolition of everyone’s favourite waste disposal area. Fast becoming a Facebook phenomenon (‘I Survived the Cartmel Fire’), many of you were woken up by this ‘exciting’ one-off event. Despite the fact that almost all of [...]

Not only that, Robbie continues his Apple hatred when he reviews the (actually very impressive) new Creative Zen. [...]

Creative’s latest offering, the Creative Zen, pits itself against the iPod Nano and basically wins. It comes in a range of sizes from 2 to 32GB and has additional features such as an FM radio, voice and music recording and comprehensive video playback.
