Favorite Thing: in cafeteria magica
diximus de melvyn bragg
qui interrogat
qui decem libri
de populi britanniae scripsi
terras mutaverunt

Translation:
in the Magic Cafe
we talked about Melvyn Bragg
who asks
which ten books
written by British people
have changed the world?

The answer:
^ Newton's Principia
^ Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations
^ The Rules of Association Football
^ Darwin's Origin of Species
^ Magna Carta
^ Marie Stopes
^ Mary Wolstonecraft
^ Faraday on Electricity
^ King James Bible
^ Shakespeare's First Folio

Fondest Memory: Discussing the 10 books written by British people that have changed the world in the Magic Cafe is a classic Oxonian experience, in my opinion... :-D
