Alex Harries's diary

Random photos from a random Giant Jenga game in the UPSU Sabb office. Well, it was half 9 in the evening, and we were still at work...

9.30pm and still in the office? It must be Giant Jenga time...

Working a typically late Tuesday night. Suddenly, the Pure FM and Pugwash bods in the office discover Sarah B's Giant Jenga and it all gets a bit messy... ;o)

By the way, we don't normally have big kids' games in work - it's just that tomorrow's the Re-Freshers' Fayre, so there's a lot going on at the moment... :o)

Concentration...

Clearly, Ben can't handle the pressure and leaves as Gina goes for a tough shot with the Giant Jenga. It's ok though - her tactics paid off...

Caroline pops in to show off Gamel's latest creation

Gamel Oki, Pugwash mag designer and editor extraordinaire, made this with his eyes shut... Ok, he didn't have his eyes closed, but who cares - very eye-catching design based on the design of the Pugwash mag reviews pages.

If you're online or near the Union on the 21st/22nd Feb, tune in to Pure FM to hear their 24 hour eBay-tastic broadcast!

Now you've done it...

... and then Maz goes and makes a mess of it all. Maaaaaaaaaaz!!! ;o) 

... taking random photos:

Indian Summer at the Union - woo, sunshine!!

Students enjoy the sunshine with a drink outside in the sun. Colder weather is forecast for tomorrow, though :o(

Ideas and photography

Jacob, news editor, drafts ideas for the reorganisation of our online news content.

On screen you can see Aperture displaying one of yesterday's photos of the CopyShop clothing range.

My desk is a busy place during the day...

New toys!

Ooh, new toys for Pure FM! The student radio station's brand new audio recorder arrives on my desk.

The speakers in the background are my desk set-up, running off a decommissioned 700W PA amp from the nightclub venue across the road  - who says work has to be boring?! :o)

Global domination: step 1 - anti-fees campaign

Andrew 'Jaffa' Machin demonstrates part 1 of his plan for global domination: a Top Up Fees debate at the University.

Lovely weather :o)

More people, also enjoying that sunshine. My office is on the ground floor of the building on the right. 

If there's one thing that's truly awesome about Facebook's new(-ish) fan pages, its our ability to combine them with the huge amounts of visual content we make available through RSS syndication from UPSU.net.

(Total disclosure: many ideas used on our UPSU FB page stolen wholesale from the UoP Facebook page. Ah well, they say there are no original ideas anymore...)
