Children in need 2007: Warwick Univeristy

For children in need this year Super Ann (Super Kevs feminine alter ego) organised, as every year, a bit of a dress up, raffle and cake sale. Yum! Now new to the department and not to be out done I chose to dress up as my TV hero Moss from the IT crowd (If BOFH was a TV series he would be an evil Moss).

So the weekend before CIN I went shopping for the appropriate props. I went to the fancy dress shop and picked up some thick framed glasses and a huge afro wig. I also went to the charity shop and found a really bad short sleeved shirt. As the day loomed I finally found a tie worthy at Oxfam.

So with a snip of the wig (to bring it down in size) I dressed up with turned up jeans, white socks and trainers, the tea cloth shirt and awesome tie.

Yes, yes you're right. The wig was massive! Next time I wear this I'll have a go at it with hedge cutters. But in donning the outfit I not only got my photo taken with countless students, I probably scared half the academics in the building to death too. I went to the pub at lunch and was amazed by one student who was wearing a full batman outfit. I felt underdressed! It was fantastic and will definitely be a contender for next year. And at the end of the day when raffles and cake sales had finished the final tally was a whopping £574.57. A fantastic effort.
