    Here is what they had LAST YEAR*:



    Monday
    • Carnival day on campus, all day
    • Indoor Football 11-1
    • Tug of War Competition 12-2
    • Drinks in “The Bell” at 7pm, Bus to mystery destination leaves at 11pm
    Tuesday
    • Tag Rugby and rounders on the sports field 12pm
    • Pool and darts competition in the common room 12pm
    • Psychic in visitors dining room (Beside the common room) 12pm
    Wednesday
    • Casino Day on Campus, all day
    • Dodgeball in the sports hall 2pm
    • Call of Duty 4 “Knock out” Tournament in the common room 12-1
    Thursday
    • POC- Party on campus with bar, band and DJ from 12pm onwards. bus to “The Bell”

    no idea what happened on the friday....if anything happened...maybe they were letting people recover from their hangover haha

    *(just put that in bold so people dont mistake it for this years timetable or something)



    so basicly just social events to help new people to the college make friends, hav fun, and get orientated around the college and local area/pub. also the clubs and societies usually put out stalls to pimp their respective club/society

    lookin forward to seeing what they have this year.

    ....u mean 18 right? *wink wink* ;)


    but seriously, there's lots of events there that dont involve drinking, as I'm sure there will be this year. besides you'll no doubt be of age for rag week (which is pretty much just drinking) so you wont be missing much at freshers week in that area.

    besides the bell hardly ever check ID...and Heaven...Heaven is a very ironic name :P


    anyway I've no doubt you'll still have fun.
