Well done again everyone ;o)

After our week of fun filled events, we have come to a provisional total of money raised and after all the fantastic effort that the RAG team put in we managed to raise £575.76.

Thank you for the support and silliness!

The third night of RAG week was a fantastic film festival that spanned three lecture theatres on Talbot Campus. The three themed theatres were chick flicks, all action heroes and the comedy club. 'Life of Brian' was the most popular film by far and lucky film goers were treated to popcorn, sweets and crisps in the lovely decked out surroundings. Donations on the night totalled £112.85 which brings the total so far to £403.78.

The second day of the raucous RAG week was a mega-munch-out pizza eating competition in Dylan's.  31 big-bellied students battled it out to win a year's supply of Pizza Hut, ramming as much deep pan, cheese and tomato pizza in their mouth's as possible in three minutes.  The winner James managed to scoff 6 slices in the first round and a whopping four in the second in a mere 1-minute!  There were red faces, stuffed mouths and full bellies after but with a massive £168.05 raised it was a definite success!  Thanks to all the competitors who entered and the brilliant RAG crew who rounded them up ;o)

You may have seen our crazy silent dancing shenanigans yesterday where we strutted our stuff in the name of RAG all around campus!  Well, we managed to raise a fantastic £122.88!  So thank you for your kind contributions and to everyone (especially the lion and the rabbit) for dancing their arses off!
