Apologies and Fancy Dress

Firstly, apologies for the delay in announcing the winners. I finally handed in the 3rd chapter draft of my dissertation, so I celebrated by taking the afternoon/evening off and watching films with friends.

The winners will be announces this afternoon, once I get home from uni. Sooo....probably around 3-4pm GMT. Hurrah!

It was the last Cirus meeting of the term on Monday, so we went out for a curry. This being circus, there was a fancy dress theme. ANY fictional character. It was so hard to think of a costume that involved minimal effort (mostly with my hair) but in the end a friend from Gilbert and Sullivan suggested Cruella De Ville, from 101 Dalmations.

Perfect! I didn't have to do anything strenuous with my hair and I managed to find some dalmation print fabric at the market. I did end up being 1.5 hours late for the circus session, but I was in plenty of time for the actual food. Hurrah!

Other characters included Link (from Zelda), Princess Mononoke, Minnie Mouse, a Smurf (complete with blue latex arms) and the Cheshire Cat. As ever, it was lots and lots of fun.
