Joe Hand

Rehearsing for Pirates of Penzance 2014

Bio

Joe is a first year zoology student at Southampton. He also sometimes refers to himself in the third person. He is also the current LOpSoc secretary for the 2014/2015 year. He has sung for 7 years in a choir, and for 3 of those was part of an a capella group. He owns 37 tortoises, a ferret, a St. Bernard, a cat, two chickens and would like to have a Japanese fighting fish named Nigel. He guesses he'd probably like to end up living in the Lake District or something. Joe died in March 2014 when he was mercilessly shaved off of the face of Ulf, his host organism.
