St. Peter's game and party

A pleasant weekend in Oxford-got round to some work on Saturday morning, and then had the annual st. Peters old boys rugby match in the afternoon. A rusty, as always performance, and marketly unfit, but nono-the-less, a fun game, which is all that matters. In the end we won 10-7. Dinner at 7.30pm in the St. Peter's dining hall which was really good fun-except that they didn't provide wine which was supposed to be included in the somewhat overpriced bill (25 pounds per person). There was the usual singing and warchants (for lack of a better experession) and then on to the purple turtle for after party. A good night, except that it has taken almost a full day to recover, and hence missed most of what was the warmest day this year-can you believe it-we got to 12 degrees centigrade!! It's funny what different expectations do to you. In Zim, 12 degrees would be a very cold winters day, where here, because its been hovering around freezing point all winter, a slightly warmer day really gets everyone excited.
