This year’s dinner will be held on the 17th March at Robinson College. Drinking tickets cost £45, and non-drinking £38. Please return the dinner reply form to the Secretary by the 25th February. The Master’s Christmas letter is also available for download here.

This year’s London Outing will be on Saturday 26th November. The programme is:

Followed by one or more pubs and the traditional Brick Lane curry.

The results of the SUA striking competition held in Cambridge on 12th November are now available here. A further report will follow.

Everyone is invited to formal at Jesus on Tuesday 8th November – only £7.85; bring your own wine (1 bottle/person with no corkage fee).

Deadline for replies (to the master): 00:00 Friday morning (28th Oct) so that I can book on Friday.

Cambridge Christmas will be here sooner than you think! The Guild Christmas dinner will be on Thursday 1st December in Robinson.

College dinners are usually on a number of nights, so hopefully you can keep that day free to join the fun with plenty of food, drink, party hats, corny jokes, too many sprouts, handbells (to play jingle bells on) and general fun.

Look forward to seeing you there!

If anyone is interested, there is a young ringers’ outing around Newmarket/Soham – I’m sure they’d be very pleased to see people. Have a look at facebook for more details.

Unfortunately, I can’t go as I’ve arranged a have-a-go session at GSM for learners, but there are plenty of buses/trains between places (the outing has been designed to be doable by bus).

If anyone is around to help me between 1.30 and 3.30 at GSM who is confident with teaching, I could do with some help too.

The Guild Freshers’ cycle outing will be on Saturday the 15th of October; the planned itinerary is given below.

Those with Saturday lectures or a great love of their beds who are unable to make the start are welcome to join us late at the first tower or at any subsequent point on the route. For those less inclined towards two wheels I have given transport options below, however they do tend to be in and out of the city rather than between towers. There may well be additional buses that do these routes.

Itinerary:

Anyone coming to study in Cambridge in the new year will be warmly welcomed at any or all of our practices whether you’re still learning to handle the rope or splicing surprise – we have everyone in between!

Come and chat to us at the freshers’ fair or send an e-mail to any of us if you want more information (or just to check that we are as friendly as we say we are).

We hope to see you at St Andrew’s on Thursdays (8:00) or St Bene’t's on Fridays (7:30) in term time or at any of the other ringing/social activities we hope you’ll find out about through our mailing list. You can always join us for socialising after most practices, but Thursday 13th October should see an exciting (and free for freshers) squash where we’ll be especially keen to introduce ourselves to you and you to us.

Congratulations to everyone on their results and we hope to see lots of interest in ringing and socialising in the new year.

03/09/11 – 6 ringers required for a wedding at StAG. Ringing before and after 3pm service, £20/rope. Let the master know if you can ring.

Details of this year’s Guild Week have now been published. Please see here for the invitation letter, and here for a booking form.
