Michaelmas Term, 1997

-2nd Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

The diary starts and then pauses for thought.

-1st Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

The diary begins again. Flat Five gains a set of inhabitants, who set to cleaning the place, attempting to cook, and playing Nintendo.

0th Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

The Fear sets in as the start of term approaches, as do some exams. Mark makes and alcoholic misjudgement.

1st Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

Mark remains alive. Lectures begin. Flat Five is ecstatic. Lectures continue. Flat Five's ecstasy fades somewhat.

2nd Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

Tutorial work (or in Chris' case, lack of tutorial work) continues apace. I go to Fifth Avenue. The flat becomes unfeasibly cold. Flu strikes.

3rd Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

Another tutorial crisis looms. Chris shows his impeccable sense of timing by finally getting some work, just has his 'friendship' with Sarah Langford blossoms.

4th Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

Tutorial crises, brandy, Beer Stacks and methods of keeping life interesting.

5th Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

Mid-life crises, tutorial crises, practical crises. The flat reaches crisis point. Life continues as normal.

6th Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

The usual crises, panics general flat-based joy. Chris becomes twenty. The new, super-efficient Ian starts the tutorial work.

7th Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

The new, super-efficient Ian falls asleep at the tutorial work. Tutorial work grinds to a stop. Fifth Avenue is visited. Upset stomachs are had. The Practical From Hell occurs. Flat Five visits Shropshire for Sarah Lee's 21st birthday party.

8th Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

Flat Five wakes up at Sarah Lee's birthday party. Flat Five works (this includes Chris, on occasion).

9th Week, Michaelmas Term, 1997

Nothing happens. Life is wonderful. I buy train tickets, with some difficulty.
