We were banned from making toasties in the work kitchen some time ago, due to the lingering smell and complaints from the MSc students
1 who had to work in the room that contains the kitchen. The rules appear to have been relaxed recently, however, so James, Alex, Alastair and I made a quick trip to the
DUSA shop and stocked up on toastie ingredients.
Needless to say, we are now well fed. James and the toastie machine were as one, like a cybernetic crispy high-fat food production engine. Now all we have to cope with is cakes at 3.30pm — Thursday is
CMRU2 cake day.
1 — But the MSc students are from mechanical engineering, and we are civil engineering, so we don’t have that much sympathy.
2 — Web page amusingly out of date: last updated December 2000 if you believe the footer.
