Dear loyal Readers,
There are probably two reasons why you
have found yourself reading the pages
of The Event this week: a) because the
quality contents, full of exciting exclusives
were too much to resist, or b) because you
are using it as a little paper hat to shield
yourself from the torrential downpours we
have been having. Either way we don’t mind,
as long as it is a useful addition to your hectic
student lives.
This week the Concrete office is full of
broken umbrellas, soggy jumpers, and
chocolate wrappers. However, we haven’t
let the rain clouds dampen our spirits, and
this week’s issue is full to the brim with some
great ideas to fill your fortnight.
Enjoy!
Chloe & Alannah xx
