St John's College May Ball

In June, at the end of each academic year, in Cambridge, many colleges have May Balls, which are basically a huge, expensive party. A bit posh for my liking, really (which is why King's doesn't have one - it has a June Event instead). These photos are from the St. John's College May Ball, which Coll Reg sang at with free tickets. It lasted from 9 p.m. in the evening to 6 a.m. the morning after.

Everyone waiting in the courtyard for the event to start.

Inside the ball, late at night (or early in the morning at this stage).

Coll Reg's rival group, the Gentlemen of St. John's ('The Gents') who sing in their respective choir, even if it's not as good! This was taken at about 5 a.m., an hour before the event closes.

Just after the survivors photo has been taken. The survivors photo is exactly that...
