Welcome everyone!
Welcome, Freshers who we haven't properly met yet, and welcome too to those of you who've been here before! I'm so glad you've joined us, whether it's for the first time or the fourth year in a row. I hope you've got your listening trousers on because I'm about to tell you a great lot of stuff...
1. ZOMBIE PUB CRAWL! - TOMORROW NIGHT (Sat 2nd October) starting at 7.30pm from the Woodville Pub, which is on the corner of Woodville Road. (If you're not sure where that is, try looking it up on Googlemaps, it's close to the University, so you shouldn't have too much trouble getting there.) We should be there until at least 8, probably a little longer, so don't worry if you get lost, just call or text the society mobile for directions: 07961666997.
Basically the evening goes like this: Everyone gets dressed up as Zombies. We go stumbling across Cardiff dressed as Zombies startling folks and having a laugh, playing games and drinking (if we want to, it's not compulsory or anything) eventually ending up somewhere we can have a bit of a Zombie Boogie and generally a good time. For cheap and easy zombie attire I suggest going to Primark in town and getting something crappy and rippable. We'll have facepaint, but probably not fake blood, so you might want to drop in at one of the many (many) joke/fancy dress shops in the city centre and get some, but it's up to you. Either way, I hope I'll see you there!
2. Monday Milgi Meeting. The first of many. For those of you who know Cardiff, you should know City Road. Milgi is on the top end of City Road and we're there from 7.30pm onwards in the yurt out back. Just wander in at any point and say to one of the lovely guys or girls behind the counter that you're looking for Sci-Fi Soc and they'll direct you towards us. For those of you who don't know Cardiff we'll be meeting outside the BACK of the Union from 7pm, leaving at 7.15pm to walk people over to Milgi.
It's a cafe bar, and has lots of good drinks, both alcoholic and non (I personally love their chai lattes and Cat has a thing for the hot chocolate) and a brilliant atmosphere. This Monday we'll be paying silly games (the Post-it Game specifically) and learning each other's names and generally mucking about. I really hope I'll see you there, 'cause I understand that the Pub Crawl won't be everyone's thing, but Milgi is great and relaxed.
3. Friday Film. Also the first of many. For those of you returning to the Society, you know the drill, we'll be in the Bute Lecture Theatre, Bute Building from 7pm, you can meet us there. For those of you who are new and don't know where you're going or what you're doing, we'll be meeting outside the FRONT of the Union from 6.30pm to leave at 7pm to walk you over to the Bute building. To kick us off for the new term and the new year of Sci-Fi we've got The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Come along; share and enjoy! :D
