I agree with you David... That business can be as worthy a life choice as academia... My parents are both right-wing business people and they're very happy. They watch university challenge on a monday evening and they read shakespeare on a Sunday afternoon... well saying that - they also do the SUN ...

Hi David - how are you... im glad you like them - but then -you know.

Heehee - you're talking about my minutes...I thought I'd throw a big mistake in there just to shake things up a bit...and you apparently fell for it. And will - if you want this semester's minutes today you can write them yourself. I have to eat lunch now... The parliamentary debate is coming along ...

Aww bless him - he's already 'ashamed of st andrews' and its only been a fortnight. I don't think he's going to last very long (if it is a 'he') if he continues in that vain...he might DIE of shame or something! Does he really think its his place as a new guy to come to one debate and then publicly ...

Will Donald Watson! What are you doing? You can't go around analysing the debating society and saying 'well - a few debates are real but the rest is just entertainment' without even being involved! Damned by faint praise. In the past four debates we have seen 1) a competative debate, 2) a hilarious ...

Well well well - talking about minutes eh? I like minutes :) They have been sent in full to Mr. Bryn Williams this very eve - and he has expressed a desire to upload them as soon as possible. So the waiting is over...well almost. Id rather take a longer time over good minutes than write bad ones qui...

Ah - sorry about the old spelling of the name wrong there...

Im glad you use your real name daivd - because I spend all my time trying to work out who is who... but then maybe that's just because im blonde! Oh you should read the minutes to this overseas - its hilarious...

Is it just me... Or do many members of our beloved debating society fail to understand what these mean? I often see people standing up 'on a point of order' just to make a comment they think is relevant - not because someone is actually breaking the rules of order of the house... same with the other...

Don't forget Simon, If you actually want me to include all of those 'dreadful' insults - which I was too shocked to write down at the time, you'll have to E-mail me... er with them. And I agree - God Bless Debates...

Well done Will/Newty - I liked your suggestions - especially the one on the increasing dominance of the females in medicine. I think there does need to be a medical debate. The prevelance of medical students in debates is either very very low (me and you) or very well concealed. I think if we consta...

Thanks for your comments Ralph... I agree with you on the font issue - I think if Bryn wants to change it for the web that's fine, the fancy one was intended for the book... I will make the necessary changes to the minutes - that's no problem. Also I found out Ewan's surname a while ago - my updated...

Thank-you Jules you are most kind. Have you bought one of those fetching ties yet? I think you should. T

Can I just say, being the clerk for this year and all, that it is hardly fair to criticise me after one week! It is very, very easy to sit and type a short remark about how you don't like the font of my minutes etc, it is quite another to sit and type up the whole debate. The main thing is that I am...

It has come to my attention that debates ties are also not sold in Bess (What the hell is wrong with them?)... and I want one. I know I know I'm a girl, but that's no reason not to wear a tie. Especially a debates tie. Does anyone know where one might obtain such a tie save buying 'bee' coloured str...

Dear all members of Union Debating Society...I've been Clerking around for a week or so now and appear to have produced a set of minutes for the last meeting and debate. Which is nice - They can't go online yet...that will come later....but if you want them (as they really are rather funny) just ask...
