Well with my exams over I thought It would be necessary to catch up on the last few months of Selwynography. I think i said last time that I would be doing this as well and ended up, not. However! I shall endeavor to fill you, my viewers in! so here goes...

Athletics.
What can you say about athletics? Human beings at peak physical fitness racing other similar human beings, it was always going to be a tight race against the dirty Knoxies. The final score? THe girls dominated all their four events, while sadly the boys only won the most important race, the 100 metres, stalemating the day with Knox.

Tonight was positively awesome. Much like the dungeon setting of chess, billiards proved to be a similarly haunting experience. Selwyn came out with the win in the end, a fantastic finisher by Thomas 'Brick' Blockley put away the Knox team for 2010, we won by around 30 points, which, in a games where the first team to reach 325 can take over 4 hours to complete, one can understand the exhaustion Knox must be feeling after putting up such a good fight. The game started at around 6.40pm and finished at about 11:10. Overall both teams played fierce, and Selwyn simply fought harder for the win. unfortunately I arrived too late to get any pics of our #1 Ben, oh well.

Oh Amish April, your influence has been over Selwyn the last month, making it impossible for one to shave their manly beards, and who would want to? One must strive to look like the others in America, stoic, unclean and stern.

Such is the life begotten upon someone who may not shave for a whole month. And the loser of the following Rock Off? Second to last place gets to grow a beard for another mighty month, first place gets to shave only half for the rest of the month.

So yea Amish April came to an end, and this is well, the end result. The one wearing the suspenders in the middle had the manliest growth, the one to his right had last years greatest beard, brilliant.

Our fourth Nevill event, instrumental went excellently. We played in the Knox grand hall, a fantatsic venue. In the ned we lost out by a very slim margin, despite the fact that our two pieces only had four people in each, which was opposed to Knox's full 15 strong orchestra. I was so transfixed by our first performance I didn't take any photos, I only took these three because I was prompted too, it sounded that good, overall a fantastic effort and a big thankyou has to go coach Cassy who produced one of the finest instrumentals we've had in years
