    COMMITTEE CHANGE-OVER

    181572_10150113077481625_564171624_6998619_4994170_n
    Committee changeover took place Sunday 20th February and saw old and new committee tour Loughborough town for a night of debauchery.
    Strolling up in an array of outfits, from Sponge Bob Square Pants to Lord Voldemort, C3PO to Henry the Hoover, new committee put in a good show and stole all the attention away from the Telford-polo shirt wearing old committee.
    A fine dinner in Noodle bar was soon followed by a lively session in one of Telford’s favourite haunts –  Custard Bar.
    After an intense cross-examination of all individuals in the bar, Telford committees made their way for further adventures in EQ. Somehow managing to get past security, smuggling in a Jesus cross and a meat-outfit. Telford rocked out an empty dance floor, bringing the whole club alive and attracting the laughably casual dressed punters to join in.
    The rest of the night passed in a haze…
    Should anybody  reading this have happened to come across any committee members on this night out, please do not inform them of what they were doing – we don’t want to know.
    Telford out.

    As our fresher year comes to an end…

    A Year at Telford Hall

    As it invariably comes up to the end of the year you cant help but look back on the time that has passed and everything that has changed. I arrived at Telford on that fateful Tuesday in September obviously scared out of my wits. This wasn’t all due to the nerves always surrounding freshers but more because the entrance to Telford was manned by a dozen or so guys in cow onsie outfits. I still remember the first words I said to my mum were ‘what have I let myself in for’. But what I didn’t realise then and only after a year of living here, is that I let myself in for the best year of my life, and no doubt living in Telford next year will even top this one.

    Its hard to even start reviewing my year at Telford. We never do things by halves, and the annual events have been nothing but epic. From our Christmas Ball on a boat to our misletoe social before the end of Christmas, by the   irst term I think we had all witnessed the interhall romances at the misletoe social (obviously) and a fair amount of mild nudity on every bus trip the hall had ventured on.

    My choice to run for committee probably proved the most memorable few weeks of the year simply because ive never been so scared yet so proud for making an absolute fool out of myself. We’ve been really lucky in Telford to have a great relationship with the former committee and an even better relationship with our new committee that have taken over. We set out to make our Summer Ball the best event yet and our social secs did not let us down by delivering an incredible event ich is probably the happiest memory that I will take away from this year, with 120 of our 175 Telfordians joining us for a hard night of raving with our resident Telford DJ’s. Djing is especially taken very seriously in the hall, which has proven to produce some ridiculously mental predrinking sessions.

    Aside from the more formal events of the year, Telford has not let any one down in keeping up the entertainment. We have one soul bench which has served as the hub of all hilarious antics since the warmer weather has arrived. The newly formed Telford Cricket Association keep tally of the Telford Ashes score huddled round the bench, of which the boys take more seriously than their degrees. On a sunny weekend morning you can always be sure someone will be on the legendary bench ready to share stores of the ridiculous night before and however stupid as it sounds, it simply shows our sense of community. If ive learnt anything form living in Telford, its that we rarely win sports, or raise the most money in rag, but we are the most close knitt family on campus. We may be the smallest hall but Telford has given me the best year I could ever ask for, bring on fresher 2011!

    So without further ado.. here it is!
