Henry & Some Of His Fans

Henry and his fans

Over Freshers’ Week last week I took thousands of photos, mainly of drunken students. A few of the photos however stand out a little more, either because they turned out particularly well or because they are a little more random than average - The photo above is a good example, I’d met this bunch of freshers earlier in the week and they had offered to help me with straighten my hair.

Upon arriving at their flat though I found out there was a catch, although not exactly a big one - They wanted me to take a photo of them with their  6th housemate who never came out with them; Henry the Hoover. Naturally I obliged, especially after they told me how they had been cutting and pasting images of him over random people who jumped into photos I had taken of them.

The Freshers’ Ball

Photo from the Glamorgan Freshers' Ball

It’s the end of Freshers’ Week and that meant that last night it was time to have a ball and try to forget that lectures started today.  Now that the photos are up in the galleries, I’m off back home to Bristol. I should have gone home this morning to work, but as anyone who heard my voice last night or this morning Freshers’ has taken it’s toll on me and spending a day talking to people at the moment is just not an option.

It’s atken longer than usual to put them up on Facebook as it was messing me about but here they are: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5.

Most Random Song Of Freshers’?

Filed under: Life, Music — Camera Dave @ 12:00 pm

It’s been a long week and there’s been a lot of music played. Some songs have been so ubiqitous that they fel like they’ve been played almost every night, but there have been plenty of songs that haven’t been played as often and it’s been great hearing songs that I haven’t heard for ages - This morning in the Baa Baas there seemed to be a Kenny Rogers medley play, but even that didn’t compare to earlier in the week when I was sat down editing photos and this came on the jukebox:

Calvin from Hollyoaks at Glamorgan

It was the first Rampage of the year and it certainly was a wild welcome that Calvin Valentine AKA Calvin from Hollyoaks got last night.

Sorry I couldn ‘t do photos of you all with Calvin with you’re own cameras, but by way of apology here are all the photos I took last night and just as soon as I manage it there will be a video of the downing competition between Calvin and the Fresher.

For now though feel free to tag the photos up on Facebook: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4.

For everyone else, to see your photos it’s off to the galleries for the photos from the Freshers’ UV Rave (and yes Kat there are plenty more of you in the galleries).
