Every morning I wake up on

The wrong side of capitalism

My First Post - Richard

For Alumni: I went to the Midsummer Common fireworks on Friday, with people from my year at college. As always, the whole town turned out, and tried to sell us flashing lights.

Some highlights:
* After an incident of queue hopping, (M)Adam and Kat refused to pay money to ‘the thieving gypos’ to go on any rides.
* I ate a footlong bag of flying saucers.
* We were told off at the end by a steward for lighting our own sparklers.

  1. A footlong bag of flying saucers? How does that work?

  3. A plastic bag, like the ones candy floss comes in. 1 foot long. Full of flying saucers.

  4. I went to Watton fireworks on Saturday. The whole town also turned out, though that doesn’t add up to much. Anyway, what puzzled me was, they started with a children’s firework display. What’s a children’s firework display? Colin was hoping the adult fireworks would be sexually explicit, but they weren’t, just a bit better.

  5. the term “thieving gypos” is actually quite racist.
