Monday Pizza was fun. Afterwards Tom invited us to go and assemble his bookshelves, which prompted much enjoyable discussion of the most efficient methods, and a bit of assembly. This is useful because his bookcase is very like the one I have another of against the weekend when I have enough time to unpack my boxes of "these books should be on display." Assembling one the SECOND time, especially with several people and a hammer, is much easier as you know what's important, so I feel comfortable building mine when I know I only have an hour or two available.

Alternatively, I may invite to *mine* for wardrobe assembly, and to play with my Penultima set which has easily distinguishable King-pieces and Pawn-pieces :)

Somehow Tom's half-furnished living room seemed conducive to a whole range of amusing conversations which aren't worth quoting, but was very pleasant.

ETA: I may have drunk more port than is strictly normal for a weeknight, but not enough to be a problem. I did want to shake some people sometimes and tell them to change their personalities, but this is normal :)

Hey dismantling bookcases is fun! Helps do away with restless energy ... not saying which kind :) ... how come at least one person from Tolkien seems to do my other societies? I have a similar situation to you! I dance with the Round... umm...I really should know their website, but I can't remember! And Naath turns up occassionally. If more focussed on Scottish dances, normally very fun though, was great last night, I love it when we can't do it, we collpase into helpless laughing! :D really good fun.

I totally thought your title said 'Greek pizza' at first, and I was intrigued!

LOL. No, not in cambridge :) Not the name is very specific.

Also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_pizza. I didn't know about it, but when you said that I assumed someone else had thought of it, and it sounded quite nice, and there it is :)

Err... what?

Ooh! Hi. I haven't been to the round, as opposed to their ceilidhs, very often, but am just starting to go more, I'll see you there. I'm still surprised by the number of people who turn up there.

Partly cambridge is just very interlinked. Partly there are a few people (Naath was always good) who just did a whole variety of things. Now people I know are starting to have graduated so no longer can I walk down Sidney Street and rely on seeing two people I know, but it used to be the case.

PS. Remmeber to bring xmas letters tonight :)
