Curry and Bowling

The much anticipated 2nd Shocksoc Social Event!!

We're going for a curry at Soloman's (Studley Terrace). Don't worry if you don't know where it is, we're meeting at Castle Leazes Reception at 7pm. There's 3 choices of curry plus rice and naan bread. It's NOT BYOB.

After that we're going for a couple of games of bowling at AMF bowling nearby. It's normally £9 for 2 games so think of the discount!

Tickets are £10 for members and £13 for non-members and are on sale in Merez Court reception until Thursday 22nd October so get them quick!

This will be another good chance to meet new people on your course. These evenings are always good fun and always popular so come along and join in.

Hope to see everyone there!!

Change of Plan

As you can all see its raining pretty bad, which would not make a bbq on the beach very fun.  Therefore if it continues to rain we are having to move the venue to Marks house...

Don't worry if you don't know where it is we are still meeting outside Merz court at 1pm and all heading from there.  If you can't make 1pm but still want to come to Marks please call either
Graeme: 07884268426
or
Mark:     07841458484

Thanks

ps We have plenty of FREE food and drink

11 a-side Staff vs Students

ShockSoc,

We're playing football once more!
The challenge has been set by the staff of the school. They dare think they can take us on.

The game details are below;
Date: June 4th
Kickoff: 19:00

Meeting time: 18:15
Meeting Place: Haymarket Metrostation

The game is open to all of our members be they boy or girl. So if you want to play send an
email along to sport@shocksoc.com the team sizes are limited so send that email asap!

Don't want to play, you don't have to, come along to watch the fun, and join us in laughing
up our victory after the game with a few quick drinks. Supporting is open to anyone and
everyone, even none members. So come along a cheer us on, or, if you dare, cheer on the
staff, just remember that exams will be over by that point so no extra marks will be awarded
if you do!

Don't forget, the free beach party is the next day, so come on down and play in the sea!

Free Buffet and Beach BBQ!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The time for the celebration is upon us.
With the ending of the term comes the ending of the Shocksoc calendar. As such, it is our duty as your committee to use the money we have left for the year, and treat you to a massive barbeque on the beach!

So come on down to Tynemouth Beach, if you do we'll be feeding you large amounts of grilled food, providing you with large quantaties of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. And spending the day enjoying whatever weather the world wants to throw at us, because we'll be free for another 4 months or so.

We'll be meeting at 12pm in M4.13 in Merz Court, where we'll be having a free buffet with the staff, before heading on over to the beach.

So for a great day out of laughs, sports, games, sun and food, head to the beach with Shocksoc!
