QMU Glasgow Christmas Cheese

It's end of term, it's Christmas, and people are feeling festively freaky. Glasgow University's Queen Margaret Union has the answer... a 12 hour "cheesey" christmas ball.

Once again I was with Valour and Felicity to cover the event. V&F provide awesome photobooth set ups at events and I go along to provide roving shots.

7.30pm - we arrive to set up the booth and Santa's grotto.

8am - doors open!

8.30pm - santa's off having a fag, I go to get some food.

9.25pm - I return with tasty (yet over priced) pizza, Oli wanted ham and mushroom which is difficult to find in Glasgow if you don't want it deep fried.

10pm - I start work.

11pm - sumo santas fight, Glaswegians are experts at this...

12am - Getting tired, time for a drink. Go to the bar to order a pint of "magic". Christ on a bike, that's actually a drink here?! It's wkd and cider... it's rancid. Gulp it down.

12.30am - Tennents this time please, Catherine.

1am - Dj begins the longest set I have ever witnessed. His music taste is hard to stomach, I guess that's why they call it "cheesey".

2am - photo booth closes, a quick discussion between us sees QMU getting the "naughtiest students" award.

3am - roaming photography done. Game over as I submit to sleep in "camp hope" in the tv room of the union. Thankfully I have a sleeping bag.

6.45am - alarm goes, extract myself from sleeping bag, sling camera around neck, ruffle hair to "sexy messy".

6.50am - let's test the licensing hours, order a pint of tennents...

6.52am - ...drink pint of tennents for breakfast.

7am - roaming photography continues.

7.30am - survivors photo!

7.45am - how have you lasted 12 hours in heels!!?

7.50am - last orders

8pm - bouncers kick everyone out.
