JCR Committee: Jonny Franks

2004–5: Ents Rep

Born at a very early age, to a mother who was a hamster and a father who smelled of elderberries, Jonny struggled for direction in his life until he learnt to walk. After clearing that particular hurdle, he went on to master most other (voluntary) bodily movements (running, jumping, hurdling), start and finish school, and, on one memorably painful occasion, 'skateboard' (fall) down a steep hill with all the suave nonchalance of a palsied blackbird on ether.

A love of fine wines, lengthy novels and strolls through country estates spectacularly eluded Jonny and he instead busied himself with building houses in the woods with his friends. When completed, the abodes didn't so much resemble houses as they did effigies of houses constructed out of toliet rolls by a dying marmoset, but the point was... what was the point? I can't remember, but anyway, it turns out that Jonny was sufficiently over-privileged to have a real house, and sufficiently good (looking) to apply to Cambridge.

At the beginning of his Cambridge life, Jonny found himself 'pooled' after a (thankfully) unsuccessful application to Emmanuel College, but was promptly rescued by the passing lifeboat of the College of Corpus Christi and the Blessed Giant Television. He quickly established himself as a regular (linesman) in the Corpus Second's Football Team, where he continues to stun team-mates and spectators alike by running rings around opponents, occasionally with the ball. He is part of the undefeated Corpus pool team, and he once slept on the floor of the bathroom of X staircase in just a towel.

Jonny is happy to admit that he is regularly ID'd at Coco's and was once asked by a bouncer if he was in a boy band. He takes this as a huge compliment.

In other news, Jonny is also the Ents Officer for 2005-6. This involves organising the ever-popular cheese-and-sweat-fests that are Corpus slacks, putting on a JCR Garden Party in May Week, organising some of the nights in Freshers' Week, and generally trying to make sure that there are enough varied events to serve the wide-ranging and bizarre tastes of the Corpus massive. If you have any ents-related ideas or queries (themes for slacks, events you'd like to see, possibility of employing monkey-butlers, etc.) please email him or harrass him until he does something useful.
