Things that go Bump in the Night

A CR signer remembers late night NUS conference activity:

Nearly twenty years ago when on the UJS team I had the privilege of sharing a room (one bed only) with The Commander (Adrian Cohen). As he had sneaked of to write some dodgy pamphlet with the other half of the "zionist conspiracy" Pottinger and Ashworth , I decided to lock him out and get a good night's sleep. When he came back he knocked on the door for about half and hour (same rhythm as a finger waving trot). I thought it was very funny at the time. I did eventualy let him in. Anyway I am very sorry and have been living with my guilt for all these years (in your dreams !)

Can't say I remember writing this pamphlet (let alone it being a dodgy one) however.

I'm Sorry

During the dispute at Sunderland Poly over the J Soc. ban in the mid 80s this book appeared. Republished on-line at Engage it seems as relevent today as it ever did. Have a read.
