I did, I emailed him today as soon as I noticed unfortunately he seems to be pretty slow to replying.
Also another hilarious story, last night I was working at my universities annual faculty Christmas party thing. My job was to help set up decorations and man the registration desk, and one of the retired teachers that came was absolutely mental, his name might have been Jim, we were not 100% sure.
The first event happened when one of the girls working with me went to get a drink, she was with her boyfriend and they went together. Apparently while walking back from the table Jim came up to her and said "So baby, I'll see you later tonight right? Oh don't worry your boyfriend can come too."
Next he passed by the registration table again, and this time he brought us a bunch of beef sandwiches that they were giving out at another table. When I turned him down, he just said "HAH! Yeah you've had enough already huh!" then rubbed my stomach and walked off.
Then while I was walking around a bit later looking for something to eat. I saw the girl from before with her boyfriend, and another girl that was working the desk with me talking to one of our teachers, so I hung around them for a few minutes and Jim passed by again, and tapped me on the shoulder and said "Oh so you ignore me and indulge him huh?" and then he shook his head and was about to take off, when I said "Alright come one tell me what did you used to teach here?" He said "forget it, unless you give me a kiss!" and I replied, "Sorry, I'm not that European, how about a hug instead though?" and he said "Hah! Sure" then he hugged me, and then moved on to the other two girls who were actually a few meters away at this point. He just went up to them said "Huggy Boo!" and hugged them, and he kissed one on the side of the head. Then he tried to hug the teacher, and he just told him "No" at which point Jim said "How about I bite your ass instead?! Hah!" and he walked off.
A bit later after that when I was back at the registration desk he walked by again and told one of the girls "Hey bite down on this!" and he then reached into his coat, and pulled out...
An entire strawberry floating Pineapple that he had taken off one of the tables with refreshments.
He then just put the pineapple down on our table and walked off.
Also at some point during the night, when the girl who had her boyfriend there was walking around, he came up to both of them garbed glasses of wine they were both holding, said thanks and downed them both within about 2 seconds. But at least he was nice enough to go and get them some more drinks.
tl;dr potentially boring night made hilarious by possibly senile old man.
), have to be up at half six, and have a meeting with my course manager regarding my work diary which I've got a month of the possible three written for.
