Would anybody be interested in attending this? It's on a Saturday so I realise not everybody will be able to make it, but for us locals it could be a great night out (weather permitting!)
For more information, it's on this website - just click on "Fireworks Fiesta".
Tickets are £5 each.

Tuesday 16th October Social at "The Slug & Lettuce"
Hello everybody,
Just a reminder about the gathering of MA at The Slug & Lettuce bar on Tuesday 16th October after the lectures during the day. They should finish at 6pm and then we can go to the pub! It would be great to see everybody there!
We will probably all go down in a group I imagine but in case anyone doesn't know the way, here's a map:

and here's what it looks like!

See you all soon!

Lecture / Seminar Cancellations
Hi All!
Just an idea - I think it might be wise for each MA discipline to have a contact so that, should a lecture be cancelled or rescheduled, the tutor can contact that person, who can then relay the message to other members of the group – this would help to avoid unnecessary journeys being made, - especially in cases where people are travelling for over an hour or more to get to Uni for a lecture!
I did have a conversation with one student last week who embarked on their journey at silly o’clock in the morning in order to get to Uni for 9, only to find that their lecture had been cancelled!!!
Thanks!
Joe.

How to Register with Facebook and Join the Masters Group
Hello again, here's a quick guide for anyone who is not yet registered with Facebook and wants to join the MA Group. Facebook is a "Social Networking Website". Basically it means you have a profile about yourself with links to your friends and allows you to share pictures and groups. It can be a bit overwhelming at first, but you soon get used to it and it's a generally fun place to just have a natter about things.
First of all, go to www.facebook.com
You will see a section that says
If you click the "Sign Up" button, you will ask you for a few key points about yourself including name, where you're from, a contact email address, a security check (as discussed by Jim in the first week) and a box to tick that says you agree with the terms and conditions. If you follow the instructions from here, you will be set up with a page all about you! You can put on as much information as you want, or even keep a lot of it private, so it's up to you how much you want to share.
Once you're registered with the site, you can join various groups. The one we've been talking about is:
I know that's not the most comprehensive set of instructions in the world, but I hope it gives those of you who haven't used Facebook before enough information to get you started. Please leave comments on the Blog if you're confused and one of us will try and answer your questions as best we can.

You can also start a discussion on the Discussion Board, upload photos or just have a look to see what everybody else is doing.I know that's not the most comprehensive set of instructions in the world, but I hope it gives those of you who haven't used Facebook before enough information to get you started.
