The Laboratory

Have you lost Whamageddon yet? Don't worry, I'm not going to spoil it for you - no video links here! If you haven't heard of it, the game starts in November when someone mentions it, and you drop out of the game the first time you hear "Last Christmas" by Wham! Are you still in?  There's also variations like DavidEssexAWintersTaleAgeddon, and of course Harkageddon - you lose as soon as your vicar schedules Hark The Herald when it's only the second Sunday in Advent. You could play HarkHunter, from the great Twitter account @QuireMemes: Tonight Sarah and I will be losing Harkageddon, but hopefully not Whamageddon, as we are going to the Carol Service at what is officially the UK's nicest Red-brick College in the Snow, Royal Holloway University of London. It narrowly beat Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford as Sarah got more likes on Facebook. Here it is:

Thanks to the 3 people (THREE!!) who have entered the Advent Calendar competiton from 15th December , no one's got it right yet so keep trying! Today's also a competition, but more of a private one between Sarah and me. She was sent an e-card from her university, Royal Holloway in Egham, showing a snowy scene. Very pretty, but not as good as the gardens in my college, Lady Margaret Hall at Oxford. So we thought we'd have a vote as to which is really best. Please do join in, and betray your educational or class allegiances as you wish: Which college has the nicest winter gardens?
