Dear readers,

The couple of sunny days we have had this week

have convinced us that Spring is just around the

corner. The square will be ready soon (apparent-

ly), so it should be done just in time for exams.

Great. Prepare yourself for this by making sure

you get yourself down to the ‘UEA Frock Shop’

on Thursday 12th March to nab some summer

bargains.

We know that dissertations are due for many,

but make sure you take a break from the library,

grab a cup of tea and have a good read of The

Event!

Happy Reading!

Love Chloe and Alannah xx
