Week 7

Assignments
Three more assignments due this week. Three more assignments completed this week. My study group was selected to present out Managereal Economics Industry report to the class on Monday. Our study was on the Retail Grocery Industry in the UK. Fun stuff.

Keble Formal Dinner
So Ben Carswell invited a number of us in the MBA class to Formal Dinner at his college Keble. Keble was a beautiful college, with a great old school atmosphere.

Conversations in the pub
I was talking with my mate Tom (see picture) in our study group today and he was commenting on the conversations you overhear in the pubs in Oxford. People here don't talk about the football or the latest movie, instead, chances are the people on the table next to you are taking about particle physics or the some deep philosophical topic. He's planning to get a dusty old Latin book to take to the pub with him to see if it increases his pulling chances. Good luck Tom!

Templeton Dinner
Last night's party was my first formal ball which took place at my flatmate, Tim's, college. It was a very good night. It started with a glass of champagne and a ballet display in the entrance. Very civilised.... and unusual. But very cool.

Templeton was miles away, but they do make up for it with the food. It was one of the best dinners that I've had at any college here in Oxford, including my own. I enjoyed eating beef for the first time ever last night. And the puddings - yum!

I've included a few pictures below which are selections from the night. There is one of myself and Kevin who is also in my study group and Ioannis dancing with two girls. Enjoy!
