21st December 2024

In the battle of the corporate Christmas cards, there's been a bit of a theme this year. Both Adam's school and the local Maths Hub have gone for a stylish holly wreath, this one drawn by the talented Mr Kern:


You can also watch the (blink and you'll miss Adam) Salesian School Christmas Video at:


But the big battle is between the two best colleges in the land, Royal Holloway University of London (RHUL) and Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford (LMH). You may have your own opinion on this but Adam and Sarah will never agree. How did their Christmas email greetings compare?

LMH: the evidence - a snowy picture, and a choral video introduced by the Chaplain



RHUL: the evidence - an animated drawing of the college, a link to the Annual Report, and a request for money


This goes all the way back to 2013 when we held a poll for Best College Christmas on the Advent Calendar and got our alumni friends to try and fix it. The results are lost in the mists of time...

Advent Calendar 2025

1st December 2025

Hello! We've sort of lost count, but think the first Advent Calendar was back in 2003, the Internet Archive Wayback Machine says it looked like this: Of course all the links are dead, but the thing it has in common with this year's is that it is still coded in HTML, probably the last thing I will ever rely on coding for. Now it looks like this: Happy Advent! We have gone for the Bonne Maman JAM Calendar again this year, after leaving it too late last year and it selling out at both Fenwick and Selfridges! We get a fresh pot of jam every day to enjoy with our tartines and Ovomaltines. We also have the Domino's "Merry Crustmas" leaflet, and a MUJI calendar we'll show you later in the month. Do let us know what you are opening every day! You can leave a message below, or email us your ideas and suggestions for future days at robotmaths@outlook.com Have a great day!
