Mats at last!

As we have training tonight, I thought it was high time we moved the mats from the sports hall to the Comer Terrace so we can train on them! So Katie, Mike, James and I met Tim 2 in the union so I could sign my driving license away (we had permission to use the union van!) Geoff in the ARC (Activities and Resource Centre) warned me that if I scraped the van it would probably cost me £1000 to repair (and it wouldn't be the first time it would have happened). So, after traipsing around campus to various different places to get the keys, sign the papers etc we found ourselves in the security office where we were asked to provide ID, which is fine, but he didn't care who from!! He thought he was really funny and asked for some conformation that we were authorised to use the van, so we told him he would have to call the ARC. In response he informed us that that was no use unless we were in the sea with lots of animals

*awkward silence.

Well, once at our (My new vehicle) we discovered it wasn't a van at all but the 'Night Bus', an 8 person people carrier! Our new shiny mats wouldn't have fitted even if I could have moved the seat forward enough to be able to touch the pedals!

We ended up carrying them snail-style from one side of campus to the other, when I say we I mainly mean Tim2, James and Mike (Katie and I were trying) and Tats turned up just in time to move the last mat.

I can't wait to train now!
