Life in a student city

[shewhomust]

At Wednesday's pub quiz, the Professor warned us that he might not be on top form, having had an interrupted night. The doorbell had rung at three in the morning, and he had answered it to find a student neighbour uronating on his doorstep. Words were exchanged. He went back to bed, and next day discovered that his assailant had returned, and thrown eggs at the front of his house. (He had also dropped his ID: recriminations followed, and apologies, and cleaning up.)

This being a Durham student, they were quail's eggs.

Why in the world did the student ring the bell and stick around? Boggle... (I assume large amounts of alcohol were involved.) What a nuisance.

That puzzled me, too - I'm picturing someone putting a hand on the doorgrame so as not to fall over... As you say, LARGE amounts of alcohol!

Dropping their ID after urinating on and then (quail) egging a house is a very nice bit of karma.

Isn't it? Only the brightest and the best students make it to Durham ...
