Week 4: Trinity Hall

First Court. It had to be done right?
Thanks to Rehan (aka the 'angle daddy')
for this wonderful shot

A shot outside where Daniel used to live.
In so many ways this crash brought
back many memories. I miss you Daniel!

The definitive shot of Trinity Hall.
Well pleased with this one.

Today the Cambridge Hall Crash entered
a new phase. Rehan and I were outside
Peppercorns, having just met. In a
moment of inspiration, Rehan suggested
that we actually try to crash the Trinity Hall
cafeteria--ie ask someone (anyone?) if
we could go in on their card. In fact,
I was thinking of the very thing, especially
what with many people in Tithall
still (hopefully) recognising me as
'Daniel's bro at Jesus'. So off we went,
empty-handed this time.

I was at a loss when I realised that I
could not recognise anyone in the hall.
After a few minutes of contemplating,
we just decided to approach a random
with hard cash. And it worked! He was
a bit bemused (to say the least), but was
happy to oblige (especially when I told him
I had a brother who studied here. It
helped that the guys who were serving
were asking me for Daniel, how he
was doing in the army etc. ;)

Food: Rehan had some lamb stew
and I had a toad-in-the-hole with
mashed potatoes. I always knew
tithall caff to be good, and this
was again a delicious affair. 9/10.

Next time (Lent term): Clare College

Week 3: Gonville and Caius College

Another week of Cambridge

Hall Crash. 13:10 Rendez-vous at
the Peppercorns.
Purchase baguettes.

A cheeky shot outside

the Gonvile and Caius college entrance.
Enter through the Humilitatis.

Well pleased with this first
timed shot attempt. Got both
Rehan and I *and* the
Stephen Hawking portrait.

However, the college
butler came and told us we could
not have our own food in the hall.

For the first time the
Hall Crashers get busted.

Shaken but not stirred, we find
the JCR, finish off the sandwiches,
and have a good chat. 14:00,
Rehan and I finally
part our ways to the ChemEng
department and the Cavendish
respectively to resume our Cambridge days.

Next Week: Trinity Hall.

Week 2: St John's College

Until today I did not know of
this 'buttery' in St John's College.
You learn someting every day.

Holding our baguettes in front of
the college p'lodge

Next Week: Gonville and Caius College.

Week 1: Trinity College

So it all began when I met Rehan in town
on the way back from my lectures.
We agreed to have Peppercorn sandwiches
(arguably the best in Cam?),
and were wondering where to have
the sandwiches, when Rehan
made the inspired suggestion
that we go to my favourite college.

So upon entering Trinity, alas we could not
find any benches in the courts.
Then it occured to us:
why not eat the sandwich in the Hall?

And we soon decided that
every Tuesday lunch would be
a sandwich in the hall of a different
Cambridge College.

Next Week: St John's College.
