sussex uni campus

Winter of 1990/91, and I'd just arrived at a new university (for the first but not the last time...) And it was pretty!

Back then it snowed in the winter. These days it doesn't seem to in Brighton.

But then, we played with snowballs. And I gained my almost-first girlfriend thanks to accepting an invitation to go "sledding" in the middle of the night. I did point out it was "sledging" in British English. She dated me anyway ;)

We made the sledges from old vegetable boxes (donated by the "Crumbs" café in York House) wrapped in bin-liners. They didn't work well...
