Yarm School, The North |
Won VM in 1996 and second in 1997. Received full blue last
year. Enjoys a pint of vodka on tour each summer. According to his girlfriend,
"This stunning six foot blonde has been orienteering since his tender
years. Since then he has progressed from wearing baby rompers to sexy lycra and
from running into sofas to fighting with trees, barbed wire fences, and the odd
sheep tick. He has orienteered extensively throughout Europe and has lots of
mugs and coasters to prove this." Selected to run JWOC in 1996. |

St John's |
Subject |

His most depressing injury was a 6 month off walking bit in
1995. Doesn't remember having any dead good runs ever, although did win the
White Rose overall prize last year. Avid attendee and drinker at OUOC social
events (even if no-one else turns up). |

School |
Oakville Trafalgar High School, Oakville, Canada. |

watching 'Due South' on the TV, explaining that he is not American, and trying
to find someone who will play ice hockey with him. |
Steve Fisher |
College |
Nuffield (previously New College) |
Subject |
Some social science PhD |
School |
St Alban's School, Hertfordshire (1985-1992) |
Was the 4th Oxford runner in 94, 95 and 97 (consistency).
Having survived frequent attacks of Covey-Crump as an undergraduate, Steve is
enjoying the freedom to train that graduate life has afforded him. He is
expecting this Varisty Match to be his best yet. In his own words, "The
Tabs have about as much chance as a bag of drowning kittens." |

OUOC Reserves
Andy Macleod |
College |
Brasenose |
Subject |
Chemistry |
Well known for his appalling hand writing that has earned him
his alias name 'Nailest'. No need for specialist O-kit when orienteering.
Known to take the odd photo or two at OUOC socials catching all unawares. |
Pete Murphy |
College |
St Catz |
Subject |
Physics |
Another keen physicist (a sad fact that half of OUOC is plagued
with this disease). Previous owner of "Chunder Chunks Award" for
dedication and enthusiasm at social events. Also does a spot of orienteering. |
Hedley Procter |
College |
University |
Subject |
Physics |
School |
Bablake School, Coventry |
He started orienteering in 1996 and has quickly progressed onto
the international stage as one of Britain's rising stars. Briefly flummoxed by
the Scandinavian terrain last summer, Hedley showed remarkable rates of
improvement at the O-Ringen, where he radically ditched his "UNIV tacky
bottoms". Unfortunately this term Hedley has not orienteered much as he
has been in and out of the alcholol rehab. centre, again. And he has had
finals. If he had been able to maintain his meteoric rise up the colour coded
league, he would surely be world champion by now. |

Organiser/Planner's Comments
I have no items of lost property - although there may be a pair of shorts
and some dark socks left in the hall that could be ours?. I'm not going to
waffle on, but thanks for coming, thanks to all the helpers - glad you liked it
- thanks for gifts and kind words. I enjoyed doing it! Brown Clee National Event
in Year 2000!
