Hi there,

Oh and are the ribbons supposed to be 50c as Sapien said:
"They will be available from the Rainbow Week stand all week. Donations of 50c will be given to BeLonGTo, a youth group for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender young people. I take it you will be wearing one?"

or are they €1? Or maybe 50c of that €1 goes to the charity? (Just bought my one )

And... I haven't seen any safe space posters put up yet...

I asked them how much for a ribbon and they said €1... so I assume that that is what is costs... anyway it's all for charity (...right? - cause if they are trying to make a profit... *insert angry/mad signs/words here*)

On the subject of Green Week, I saw the Green Week Dragon disappearing into the Chief Steward's office inside front gate. Does this mean Paddy Morey is the Green Week Dragon? Can anyone confirm this? (Said Dragon is pictured below in a prostrate state).

Hope everyone enjoyed it. I know I did. Wednesday night was definetely the most fun for me, even if I didnt get to bed until 8.30 the next morning.
