Sarah Doll
Thursday, August 27th, 2009
It becomes obvious as I upload photographs from the 2008/9 year that perhaps an explanation of Sarah Doll is needed for anyone who finds themselves wondering why we carried along a doll to most of our socials.
As part of her course (Occupational Therapy, for those who want to know), our 2008/9 President, Sarah, had to spend most of the first semester in Barnstaple on placement. Of course, we couldn’t bear the thought of being without her for so long – or the idea of Sarah missing so many socials – and thus Sarah Doll was born. Our flexible plastic friend joined us for many a pub crawl and quiz, also providing plenty of photo opportunities.
Somehow, though, she did all this in a pink swimsuit and high heels. Yes, even in Cardiff weather! Sarah Doll splashed out and had a custom-made gown for the Yule Ball in December. She’s a sensible sort of doll, you see, and knew that swimwear was inappropriate for such a formal occasion. 
Luckily, the real Sarah rejoined us in January. Thank Merlin – she’s much more cuddly than Sarah Doll.
