Minty Fresh... fresher than your breath this morning
Two Minute Man Pops up at Tea and Toast
Some breakers entertained thrifty Freshers making the most of the Commercial Fair
Friday of Freshers’ Week 2010 was a fairly miserable affair, with terrible rain and chilly temperatures, the only thing that could cheer you guys up were the two words that every student lives to hear: FREE STUFF. Yes, that’s right, the Commercial Fair saw you lot filling your (ugg) boots with everything from condoms to pizza. Most of you now probably have enough shampoo, baked beans, boxer shorts, key rings, crap t-shirts, pens (and other useless junk you’ll definitely throw away at the end of the year) to last you a good few months. Don’t worry, here at MintyFresh, we do too.
MintyFresh love from the Conygre boys
Friday’s night events were pretty quiet, dominated by an incredible turnout to the Elements pub quiz hosted by Julie the Sabb. Ledgendary team names included ‘Quiz on my face’, ‘Quiztina Aguilera’ and of course, ‘Chunder and Lightning’. Serious Minty points were gained. Afterwards, Minty scoured the grounds for some fresher fun and gossip tip-offs. In all
mention must go to the skilled Fresher who took Gina’s hand and proceeded to teach her to waltz. You weirdo. Dressed to the nines (well, the Sabbs were anyway), you hardcore Freshers on your sixth night in a row snacked on candyfloss whilst chilling to Soul Train. Some of you skipped out early
with a group of exchange students outside Woodland Court, putting our language skills to the test by chatting French, Spanish AND Italian. Bisous de This Fresher was desperate to show us his cheeky cufflinks
MintyFresh! Over at the Masquerade Ball, despite an empty start, you turned your swag on. A special ‘Quiz on my face’ didn’t win but shared some manter with us anyway
honestly we were a bit let down to find that most of you had chosen to have the night off to prepare for a big’un tomorrow night at the Toga Party. We had fun crashing a birthday party round at Marlborough though where the girls taught Minty some even better ‘Would you rather’ questions… tomorrow night, BE READY! We also shared some top banter

however and joined MintyFresh at the Chaplaincy Centre from some brew and a slice of toast. Tapped on the shoulder, MintyFresh couldn’t believe our eyes when who should we see but the Two Minute Man himself. No word of a lie, TMM, masked and dangerous, intro-

duced himself to Minty, slightly concerned by our picture of his bedroom (the crime scene) that appeared in last night’s Minty. When interviewed on his conquests we were told ‘I like curry, what can I say? Although I have moved on to slow cooking basmati rice, it takes longer’. MintyFresh were seconds away from an exclusive chat with the Half Minute Woman but he decided to keep her all to himself. See you tomorrow chap?
Most fashionable Fresher of the night!

What you, the critics, had to say: Live band Soul Train entertained the masked crowd.
The Two Minute Man enjoys a nice cuppa to wash down his curry.
Fresher of the Night: Seb from Wolfson
Minty: What’s your best chatup line? Woodland Fresher: I don’t need one, they just look at me and BAM, Two Minute Man!”
Minty was wowed by one guy and one guy alone tonight, Silver Seb from Wolfston. Minty bumped into Seb whilst scouring the Westwood halls. Attending the Masquerade Ball dressed as Lady Gaga, Seb sipped on Amaretto and Coke as he proclaimed ‘it tastes just like Dr Pepper. We’re sure it does Seb, we’re sure it does. Finishing the night early in Tea and Toast, Silver Seb was no longer Silver, proclaiming that what we thought was face paint was in fact permanent marker
“We were cooking at 4pm and we just thought, f*** it, let’s have a whisky and coke!” Cooking tips from Dan and Freddy, Conygre Y3
I dressed up as a cow for Superhero Night. I went up to a girl and said ‘I can make you cream” Classy work Stuart.
and had begun to sting his face. Commitment. Who will win the honour tomorrow? It could be you!
Minty: North or South? Dress wearing Jack: The North, it’s more chilled and there are way more girls. Minty: Prettier? Jack: Easier. Honesty is the best policy we suppose. “I can’t do a speech, I’ve had too much Amaretto.” Silver Seb playing it cool. Minty: Buzz or Woody? Becca: Buzz, cos he’s got better guns Good call.
Do you work in Subway? Cos you just gave me a footlong. Overcompensating Fresher, Matt.
“You won’t find anyone in Mendip, Minty, they’re all playing Fifa!” Competitive Conygre peeps.
“The weirdest place I’ve ever had sex was a greenhouse. It was hot.” MB5 Craig, we imagine it was.
