Beaumont Street, Milehouse, in the snow
Uni: RAG Week Abseil, Hitch Hike, and Beaumont Street Life Plymouth, Devon - 13th February 1986
It's another busy day or two during Raise and Give - or RAG - week, down in Plymouth as firstly there's a charity hitch hike starting from the Students' Union and finishing as far away as possible, and then the PPSU Abseiling Society is doing a sponsored abseil from the roof of the Theatre Royal on Royal Parade in Plymouth city centre. In between, there are various photos of life in the students digs at Beaumont Street, and a presentation to the RAG committee from Halls Oxford and West - posing as the Plympton Pride Bank Limited, after the beer - of a cheque for £150, held in the legendary James Street Vaults

The hitch-hikers are poised for the off
The charity hitch-hikers leg it
A pile of students head out from the SU
Hitch hikers head down Portland Place
Barbara and a friend on the steps of the GTB
Riki and Dave Lock in their Sutherland Road bedsit
An abseiler hangs around near the clock tower
Abseiling action
An SUTV videographer films the abseiling on the way down
The abseiling society piles off the roof
Another abseiler
An abseiler walks down the walls of the theatre
A RAG week sign is hung up on the Theatre Royal
A gentle landing
Birthday girl gets a present in the JSV
It's someone's birthday in the JSV
Coins are tipped out
Halls Oxford and West presents a £150 cheque
The Halls rep has a beer
Malcolm in the lounge at Beaumont Street
Malcolm with a wooly jumper
Mark and Frank bundle Barbara on the sofa
There's a bundle in someone's bedroom
Luke, from Barbara's psychology course
Frank is bundled onto Nosher's bed
Barbara in her bedroom
Barbara writes some cards
Barbara in her Phi Kappa Psi frat hoodie
The psych gang on the sofa
Nosher cooks something vaguely Chinese
Malcolm and some dude
Nosher's deadly parting
