Sunday Library Meetings
are held from 8pm till late in Wadham
(map).
Go in the main entrance. Turn 90 degrees right and go straight leaving
the quad through the door ahead. Go up the bridge over the
scaffolding. At the bottom on the other side, walk forward into the
concrete covered-walkway and turn left. Walk a couple of paces and
there is a very short corridor turning off to the left with a door at
the end. This is the library - the door is marked "1".
These evenings are an opportunity to socialise, and chat about life, the universe
and everything, whilst also perusing and borrowing from
OUSFG's library of over 1,400 books.
Wednesday discussion and video meetings are held at 8pm in Merton Annexe Music Room. Merton's Holywell Annexe is at 7 Holywell Street, almost opposite to the New College main entrance (map). It is nowhere near Merton itself, so don't go there! Meet outside the wooden gates at 8pm to be let into the quad. We are in the Music Room in the basement of Block A.
Sign up for the ousfg-announce mailing list to receive a reminder and detailed directions for each meeting.

UK and US TV will battle to the death atop the Empire State Building in this discussion and will both fall, fists locked, screaming into a firey oblivion. The UK TV will then regenerate into Matt Smith, and US TV will die forever. Except Buffy who will just come back to life again. Firefly will not alas. |
