Postgrad Student Walks Back to Castle Street at 5pm to Move Car

“Oh shit look at the time,” said local postgraduate student Patrick Glaze (24) as his alarm buzzed. “It’s almost 5pm and it’s getting dark. Those young hooligans will be pouring down Castle in their droves, destroying everything in their wake. I’d better go move my Toyota Corolla to a safer location,” he said to the two other people in the Postgrad annex, who ignored him.

Patrick ventured out into the night, pushing his keys between his fingers. “If I don’t come back, burn all the paper in my drawer. That way people will think I started my thesis.”

As of print Patrick is still missing.
