Found out today that Barefact, University of Surrey Students newspaper is no more. This had been the longest running student newspaper in the UK, and something that was, well, part of the furniture. OK, it was crap and no-one ever read it but THATS NOT THE POINT! Memories include a famous article by yours truly complaining about the quality of student entertainment (basically I wanted more 80's music!). Then there was my campaign to become editor, yes EDITOR of the student newspaper as Communications Officer (now I'm a Marketing manager, funny huh!?). I came second, but surely it was my brilliant 'Spice' theme that made all the difference. And lest we forget the 'Rag' issue that Al and I put together - Bare Farts. Totally uncensored, obscene and equally as unread as the original.
You know, thinking about it I never ONCE had a personal in Barefacts. Even though I checked every week, no-one could give a toss about me enough to pop it on a piece of paper and stick it in the BF mailbox. Well have you seen my facebook now HA HA HA HA HA HA. So screw you barefact, maybe you're better off dead (I don't mean that).
anyway, bloody students, layabout kids, they should earn a living...
