OxStu interviews Oxford: Cornmarket Street

After months of aggressive stalking, last week the Oxford Student eventually managed to land a one-off interview with Cornmarket Street. In a rare exclusive interview, we found him enjoying the weather having a vegan falafel wrap off in Christchurch Meadow, donning some trendy sunglasses, a sleeveless top, and a classic NY cap. Here’s what went down.

Josh: Hello Cornmarket, nice to meet you. How’s it going?

Cornmarket Street: not bad, having a good one mate, just taking a breather from those bloody tourists oh my days it’s a flipping –

Josh: You’re popular though. One might even say the life of the party.
