The Adventures of Computer Lab Hedgehog.

Hello all.

During the years of the PF masters course, many of you will have used the computer room. And to access this sacred room, was a special guardian and keeper of the key. Yep, it was the Hedgehog! Everyone from our semester knows what the Hedgehog is - and hopefully past graduates recognise it too!

But so what? Well, at the end of Summer Semester 2009, Andreas gave us the Hedgehog. So, we thought (or perhaps Satoshi thought) it would be a great idea for it to travel the world, visiting all the places that past, present and future students come from. If you've seen the French film Amelie and can remember the travelling Gnome, you'll get the idea.

Hedgehog's first adventure was to Slovakia, as a small road trip with a few of us after we graduated. Hopefully those pictures will appear soon! In the mean time, however, the Hedgehog has come with me to North-East England.

So here are a few images showing where he/she/it has been. I have been to Durham, Sunderland, Middlesbourgh (not through choice!), Newcastle, South Sheilds, Finchale Abbey, Consett...Everywhere. Hopefully you can get a taste of what my area is like, and I look forward to seeing where else it manages to travel to.

Hedgehog, unsurprisingly, flys for free.
