Autumn 2004 Events Programme

The programme is regularly updated, as and when new information becomes available.

If you want to go on any of the Sunday events be sure to get in touch with President Gwen the week before and tell her where you would like to be picked-up.

Thursday 30th September & Friday 1st October

FRESH 2004

Pop along to our stall in the Union building from 12-7pm on Thursday or 10am-4pm on Friday to join-up, have some fudge or just get a bit of information. We are nice to talk to and won't force you to part with your cash. Find us on the 4th floor in LSR4!

Thursday 7th October

Silly hat social

Our first social of the year is traditionally held in the Epi bar, with members of the committee wearing silly hats so that we can be spotted easily! This year is no exception, so come and meet everyone from 8pm onwards. And if you are particularly keen on silly hats then bring your own along so that we don't feel so stupid...

Sunday 10th October

Purn Hill

Clearing brambles and scrub from an area of limestone grassland (there are rumours that we may be having a bonfire). The minibus will pick people up from the Union at 9.20, The Arches at 9.35 and University Hall car park at 9.50.

Saturday 6th - Sunday 7th November

Alfrick weekend

Our annual trip to Ravenshill Wood is the most popular conservation task of the year. We stay in a village hall and work on a privately managed reserve doing all sorts of things. There is hot food laid-on for lunch and a good pub just down the road. We'll also be joining Trevor and Annette Smart (the wardens) for a bonfire on Saturday evening.
Collection on Saturday from the Union 8am, Arches 8.15am, UH 8.30am, returning by 6pm on Sunday.

Have a look in the scrapbook for previous visits.

Meet at the Magic Box on Cheltenham Road (a Wetherspoon's pub) for drinks at 7pm, then on to Jester's Comedy Club across the road. Entry is a mere fiver, or £6 if you aren't a student and as well as funny stuff there is also cheap eaty and drinky stuff too.

If you'd like to join the celebrating pair in the Richmond Spring pub (opposite the Union) from 8pm, they'll be delighted to see you.
