After a day of total lethargy and general annoyance I was pleased to see on a random websearch that Newcastle University Philosophy Society remains! And in a much better state than I left it in. Originally I started the society as I was getting frustrated with the lack of any sort of philosophical community in Newcastle and since our department was growing so fast I thought it might be a good idea. It only really comprised of organizing various seminars, arguing about philosophy and getting drunk. Anyway, it was fun.... though I ran out of steam towards the end of the year due to having to write so damned much. When I left I wasn't too sure whether it would continue or if it would vanish along with me. Good news anyway, it has cheered me up alot!
