The Dulwich Despatch Summer 2023

THE Dulwich Despatch Summer 2023

Tuesday came and Oliver asked Morgan what was happening and what followed was a long speech about how Morgan loved activities and enjoyed doing things. Oliver asked, in a low whisper, ‘ Are you serious? ’ and Morgan gave a nod. Lunchbreak came around and Oliver stated that he wanted to go to two clubs this break. Everyone was shocked. ‘ What do you mean, two, Oliver? ’ Everyone was so surprised, no - one knew what to do. ‘ How come you won't play football ’ Oliver managed to whisper something to someone, and everyone heard the response, ‘ Morgan? Morgan is the one who showed you clubs !’

There was a terrible ghastly silence There was a terrible ghastly noise There was a terrible ghastly noisy silence Everyone had left for the fields.

Far away, Morgan looked over at Oliver and beckoned to him. They could go to AvSoc and Politics Society if they played their cards right...

Venturing into M33, Oliver met the leaders of the club who eagerly called for him to sit down. Oliver sat in a chair and listened to the talk, it was interesting and fun, he learned a fair lot about planes there. Later, Morgan was waiting outside the Science Block and pulled Oliver by the shirt so they could start running! Politics started at 2:00 and they had 5 minutes to get to the Master ’ s Library. The duo sped across the campus, but it would be a while before arrival because DC is unconventionally arranged. Upon arrival Mr Mackintosh welcomed them and politely shushed them so as to not disturb the speaker. He gestured to the tea and biscuits area although all the biscuits had gone and someone had drunk the milk. But overall, it was fun and again, Oliver made new friends. Wednesday was the best. On Wednesday it was Oliver ’ s turn to choose which club to go to. He chose chess. Here, they met the ‘ President ’ (although the term President is now an anachronism) and challenged him to a game. Morgan won his but Oliver was brutally crushed. Atop a table an announcement was called:

George Ayres wearing the Music tie

Calvin Lu wearing the Classics tie

Rupert Street wearing the standard issue tie
