Be off with you Bert! Boozy college students descend on the streets for 18-venue Otley Run pub crawl as kids in fancy gown are undeterred by storm battering Britain
Boozy students proved Storm Bert was no match for them as they braved howling winds and pouring rain for a mighty session this afternoon.
Storm Bert left a path of devastation across the UK on Saturday, but students in Leeds seemingly took little notice.
Donning their fancy dress, they descended on the streets for the Otley Run, one of the nation’s most famous pub crawls.

A popular booze route since the 1960’s, the Otley run has taken on another lease of life in the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic.
