I am lead to believe that Lower Rents Now will be meeting in the Whey Pat on Tuesdays at 5pm, commencing in Freshers week.

Although I'm sure they'd be delighted to have freshers attend the meeting, I suspect a lot of it will be discussing publicity and what action they're planning. You'd not be forced to participate in anything, but it may be focussing on organisational matters, - not sure how relevant you will find it all. Anyway, I'll try to go along, even though I'm not a very active member :o:

Ah I'm in DRA! Thanks though :smile:
I expect the Societies Fayre will run in the union on the Sunday. I'd guess it runs 11-4.

Basically, every society gets the chance to set themselves up at a table and provide information to anyone who's interested. You can sign up to their mailing lists, and although you can become a member, this usually costs £2 or more, so you'd be better trying out a few different things for a few weeks and then becoming a member of the ones you want to stick with.

The Cake and Poetry Society are meeting on Monday at St. Mary's Quad at 14h00.

I am so happy that this society exists. :ahee:
Just to ask, would I need to get a ticket for the "Welcome to the Bubble" thing at the union early in the day, or could I just pay at the door?
there's a geogsoc (geography or people interested in it) treasure hunt through town in teams with prizes :smile: leaving the Union at 2.30pm, Tuesday. I think it culminates in a barbeque, and it's only about £2 :biggrin:

And Christian union events;
(as has been said) sunday venue 2; solid rock cafe, which is music, food and a very (very very) short testimony by another student.
monday afternoon, at the bandstand on the scores (by the aquarium); garden party, i think this basically means free food? not sure though
tuesday, 8.30pm; pub quiz, aikmans.
wednesday; ceilidh (practice for sunday; always really popular!), madras college on south st (£3)
thursday 1pm; FREE LUNCH! omnomnom. holy trinity church (the big one on south st)
thursday 8pm; acoustic night, costa.

And every day there is a free cafe 11am-4pm, also at holy trinity church. I can honestly promise we are not going to grab you and hold you against a Bible until you experience some kind of violent religious epiphany! :tongue:
Vegsoc free lunch TODAY at 1 in the Mansefield... also Tory fresher's drinks are on Monday at half past 7 in LPH. Come :smile:
