Had a very jolly weekend, all told. Saturday’s Feng hijinks were suitably epic and entertaining, and in the evening a few of us went onto campus for the sci-fi video weekend – though I quickly left that and its strange Hong Kong action flick to go to the Grad, where my friends Sam and Laura were performing in the acoustic “Battle of the Bands” Which was an excellent night – apart from one whiny man with a guitar, all the acts were of a really high quality. Laura and Sam’s group, Strings Attached, was truly groovy. (Which is just as well, as they were on last, and Ben and Claire had agreed to delay going home so I could support them and still get a lift – I was very glad I hadn’t made them stay for something shit!) I’m now lobbying the band to produce a CD… Yesterday was the end of term Scarred Lands linear, replete with a supporting cast of ancient sorcerers, necromancers, demonic hordes, and queens and kings of hell! Virtually all the player party – including myself – died, but what a linear to end on! Following the linear was an in-character banquet, with a rather lovely spread of food laid on. As I was without a character, I decided that this’d be an opportune time to bring Sparky back, at least for a while – although as I was absolutely knackered, I was a little bit worried about playing someone energetic and bimbly! It went rather well, though, and he made lots of new friends. Once the IC stuff had come to an end, there was general dancing, and I managed to get Killing in the Name Of, and have a good old dance-and-shout. Epic LRP followed by rock music – it was almost like being back in Lancaster
