Not forgetting.........

Over my years at university I have had many, many housemates. Helped along by the fact that I spent three years in Hendrefoilan Student Village, living in a house with ten others. Some have been great, some less so. Other's I can barely remember. Such as the frenchman Alex, who spent most of his time in his room and so we never really saw him. Scott the Canadian has the dubious honour of being the only Canadian that I have grown to dislike. Mainly because he woke me up four or five times a week, coming home about 3am, drunk and singing loudly as he was carried up the stairs.
And there have been the great housemates.
This was a good year. This photo was taken on the last day that Jill (centre) and Audra (far right) were with us. They made up these little momentos for us to remember them by. Jess (the other American) had already left, as had Martin and I think Rosie didn't wake up when we were all roused.
I have tried every now-and-again to get in touch with Jill and Audra but it can be very difficult when you can't even remember if it was Ohio or Iowa State University. One of those pesky states with only four letters. Of course, digging up one of my old address books suggest that Iowa and Minnesota might be good places to look. Hmmm, Iowa has half the population of Minnesota and only a quarter of that of Ohio.
Though it is bigger.
