This year’s fittest freshers talk to the Tab about the Raz, guyliner and bringing your hamster to uni…

The days are getting shorter, the glory of the ‘MoBot’ is a faded memory and lecturers have decided this semester will be the one that finally finishes you off. But wait, there’s one group of students that are still flying the flag for fun, painting Liverpool all shades of red and partying harder than Michael Sheen on tiger blood. Yes that’s right, it’s Liverpool Uni’s freshers. These guys are still going hard six weeks in and not only are they wild, they are also some of the finest we’ve ever clapped our innocently wandering eyes on.

It doesn’t matter who you are, from liberated first year to embittered fourth year, your eyes can’t have failed to ogle the good-looking students that have appeared on campus this year.

Whether it’s taking over Nando’s with the rest of the floor or getting blasted for less than a tenner at the Raz, these halls hotties are loving every experience the student lifestyle can hurl (sorry, couldn’t resist) at them.

So, in the interest of journalistic excellence and the hope of picking up some beauty tips, The Tab’s top tottie spotters wrapped up warm and took to campus to chat up talk to some of Liverpool Uni’s hottest new prospects.

Come on and join us in checking out this year’s FIT FRESHERS!
