In other words like most of the other students in the country, and the description acurately fits me too.

Well I'm a NEAT ugly guy who wears glasses and blue and black... I like to stand out from the crowd.

I'm definately scruffy.
And we will all be fairly easy to spot, we will probably be the nutters in the corner.

Judging by what I've just read..... that sounds like an extremely accurate description! 
I'll drink to that!

Why do you ask? (eyes narrow) Will I get an explanation of your name? (After a suitable intake of alcohol of course!)

Menza Posted Nov 27, 1999
I can do that now. My last name in real life is Menzies, therefore it doesn't take too much imagination to come up with Menza@@e. Where the @@ stands for an s and an r but not necessarily in that order.

D'oh! What a let-down after all that intrigue and mystery! I may as well stay at home now.

But you have to come, even if it is only to have the opportunity to shout Menza@@e across a bar and see how many heads turn.
I'll be the one without the puzzled experession, probably doubled up in laughter.

The scruffy one in glasses? How will I tell you apart, according to the above posts?! 
Anyway, I'm far too quiet and ladylike to shout!

I've also got longish hair if that helps. And I thought shouting in a bar was mandatoty.

Is it? Oh dear! I must be out of touch.... I thought it was generally considered a good way to get chucked out (ie parted from your drink) :-0

Well I've only recently become an ex-student so its just probably old habits haning around.

Lucky you! Though I s'pose that means life in the real world now?
Pub prices are a bit different to on campus too! Especially in London. Maybe I should try a quiet night in...

I was in Uni in Manchester so a night out was much cheeper. Anyway I should be able to cope with one good night out, and it is in aid of Christmas.

Well... will wait to see what final verdict is on venue/activities. The drinking bit sounds good though! Just a bit put off by the journey home afterwards.
