Meebo Chat

A new service has been launched in hall that will allow you to speak with the Duty Assistant Warden online and in confidence.  This service will be available each evening between 7pm and 8pm and will be completely confidential - whatever you type will only be available to the Wardenial Team and not to other users of the service.  This service can be accessed at Duty AW Meebo Page.

We will be continuing Sunday Night at the Movies with a new program of films suggested by you and chosen by the assistant wardens.  Posters and full details will be available later this week on the events page.  If there are any movies that you would like us to show then please email the Duty Assistant Warden, or talk to any of the team in person.

As with all the contests this year, the standard of entry was very high and the job of judging an outright winner a hard one.  Both Rachel and Lorcan have won meals for themselves and their housemates (with complimentary sparkling wine). All other photo submissions will receive a bottle of bubbly to share with their fellow snow person builders. All other snowmen, snowwomen, snowchildren and snowcreatures can be viewed below.

Website Contest winner - Jonathan Constable.

After a lot of deliberation within the Wardenial Team it was decided that the winning entry - and winner of the iPod - belonged to Jon Constable from Fife Park.  We would like to thank all the entrants of this competition for their effort and creativity.  It was a shame that there could be only one winner.
