    It was actually meant to be Victorian style curtains but we ran out of cans. Despite the vast quantity of Coke he managed to consume over the three weeks.

    Hehe I remember Eoin and Odran's one, they closed the kitchen window on my arm when I tried to steal one... :(
    I never knew Eoin got sent to Colm though :o

    Also, someone HAS to make one out of those adorably tiny cups from the cafeteria... :cool:

    As you told Matthew. Repeatedly. And you were quite, quite right.
    On topic, we must remember that the cup pyramid plague was begun by Dave, and he should therefore be blamed/praised. Whenever anyone mentions phases now, I think of those. The not-that-differentness of Phase III, the ridiculous size and lack of symmetry of Phase IV, the cubeness of Phase V, the non-existingness of Phase VI...

    Wrong, actually. Stephen Cian Cassidy built one on our table at the table quiz last year. A whole year before all this phase stuff started.

    Yeah, but his didn't popularise the whole movement. His didn't drive people to the point of breaking into his room through the window and knocking it down.

    Who did that to Dave's, by the way?

    Crap! That makes it 3! You and your noticing my mistakes...
    And I believe we actually discovered the wrecker of Phase III, but I've err... forgotten who it was. I do indeed have a photo of Phase IV.
    And incidentally, I meant Dave started it in 2005.
    Yeah, that'll work...

    There was a cereal box one in session 2 as well. Dominic was very proud of it, despite the fact that it was only 3 boxes high, and about 30 centimetres across. To add insult to crapness, Dave's giant cup one was just one window to the left. Quite hilarious.

    Ah, yes, I'd forgotten that. And people complimented him on it, while trying not to laugh. Hilarity all round.

    Me and my roomies did in 2000, the cleaners took it away on us though. We had to build it from scratch again and on cleaning day we'd pack it away into our suitcases :p

    Twas room 47 I think on the ground floor of the res...
