It was a feature of most Art & Design colleges and Falmouth was no different. The title of Pete Brown & Pibloko's album of 1970 summed it up. These tickets that we made (I'm pretty certain that Jim Whitehead and myself were involved along with others - Dave Weekes, Allan Green?) suggest that the beer was free...but I may be romanticising it? I do recall that at one such event we realised the brewery had sent the casks but forgotten to include the spigots. Cue a dash across town in Colin Hill's car (just about the only student on campus I knew who had one!) with me decked out as King Charles (in fetching heels, velvet pants and brocade jacket) back to The Penwerris. Here I braved the bar to request the loan of a spigot to save the day...such sacrifices had to be made!
'Your New Boss' refers to John Elliot, who took over the Presidency of the Students Union, as our year began winding down our social side to concentrate on our final year studies (at least that was the theory). I've not got a contact for John...I know he had some early success as a painter (see Art UK site) showing in London - but again I don't remember the dealer...
