DUCU Houseparty in Paisley 21-23.10.11

Dundee University Christian Union weekend away in Paisley which is just outside of Glasglow (2hr drive from dundee). We stayed over at a christian campsite which wasn't too bad, quite old though I thought. The weekend was packed with fun events like bonfire, sports activities, bible talks and a very special techno ceilidh! It is the traditional ceilidh but with modern techo music + some fancy dress! You could tell this was a big highlight as everyone put in so much effort into their costume (this year the theme was 'time machine'). Look what I dressed up as!

I enjoyed it very much, not only did I make many new friends, but I also grew in my knowledge and faith in Jesus Christ. I will def go again next year! Tho I think I'll be more careful at the sports, I sprained my ankle in the weekend diving for a Frisbee (5 people 4 frisbees)  and the guy coming from the other side slammed into my ankle =[ it was so painful and left a dark purple bruise! But on the bright side I did manage to get a frisbee which my teammate subsituted in and played haha My team ended up winning overall as well!


Bonfire! Took a while for the fire to get started which got really big at the end. The wind was really strong and it was like the fire was playing tag and you don't want to get tagged!

Techo-ceildh in a rather low-roofed hall. But it was fun =]

Nour (classmate), Megan (Dentist from USA!) and Me = Dental Pirate Trio!

Best costume i thought. She went the extra mile and even got the contacts which is why its so slightly creepy. Just what you'd expect from a art student lol

Im not sure which one is robin hood 

Chimney Sweepers!

Pirate captured by roman warriors o.O?!

Exquisite costume


This was awesom. They split the leftover/uncooked food into two lots and auctioned them on the way back between the two buses. All the money went back into the DUCU for future events. Some foods were very competitive!
