Many thanks to Dr Francesca Beretta for organising our termly Lockdown Translations Unlocked. Members of the Classics School gave their own versions of a Vedic Hymn to Ratri, verse from the 1970s Brigate Saffo, a concrete poem by Besantinus with its own acrostich, and much more.

@fkamartelli We promise to investigate this issue. The leaves were and are rather lovely. At Kellogg College up the road, the leaves really are cornflakes.

Yesterday was the annual @StAnnesCollege JCR puppy-petting session. Poppit joined forces with Jack, Tommy, and Rievaulx to spread some joy. She seems to have had a pretty good time herself.

Prof. Leigh has been reading Sarah Harvey's article 'Bread and Bones: Feeding Roman Dogs', CW 114 (2021), 419-447. Last week Poppit somehow acquired an untouched Christmas turkey mayonnaise sandwich and proudly carried it half a mile on her way home. She dined on kibble instead.

Prof. Leigh had a happy time today hosting Lord Mandelson who is standing for Chancellor (36 other candidates are available). Here the honoured guest and the Principal tuck into fish and chips and mushy peas (Hartlepool guacamole).

Many thanks to Emily Perkins in the St Anne's Development Office for designing this wonderful poster. Not so long ago Emily was a terrific Exeter College Classics student coming to Prof. Leigh's Neronian Literature seminars.

Yesterday the Classical Reception Reading Group studied Pygmalion in the Romance of the Rose and the Classics Quiz translated the lyrics of the Last Dinner Party and Miley Cyrus. This is a very cultured operation.

Readers of the Odyssey will know the menace of a man called Noman Ali. The brilliant Pakistani spin bowler is currently making England's batsmen feel like the Cyclops after a very bad night.
