This Thursday is our Christmas Meal!  In a change to previous plans, it is now at Prezzo, where we have the choice of two three-course menus, at £16.95 or £19.95.  We are free to make our choices when we get there.

The plan is to meet for drinks at 44 Below (Queen Street, below Exeter Sausage and Grill) at 7pm, and our table at Prezzo is booked for 8pm.

The dress code is formal, so dinner suits for the gents and dresses for the ladies.

It should be a great evening, so we hope to see as many people there as possible.  If you want to come, and haven't yet let us know, then please either email the group or write on the wall of our Facebook group.

This evening we'll be heading to Princesshay to see the switch-on of the city's Christmas lights.

The plan is to meet outside Next (top of the High Street) at 6pm, in order to see the switch-on at 6:30pm.  This is then followed by live music from Mama Stones' bands until 8pm, and then we'll head to a pub for a few drinks.

Thursday 17th November - FREE Cinema Trip!

This Thursday we shall be heading to Exeter's Picturehouse Cinema for a free screening of a new romantic comedy drama called "The Future".

'The film follows the relationship of Sophie and Jason who hate their jobs and their lives so decide that in one month they'll adopt a stray cat to give them a sense of meaning.  Terrified about their impending loss of freedom, they quit their jobs to pursue their dreams.  Sophie wants to create a dance, Jason wants simply to be guided by fate.  So what will become of them in that month?  Narrated by the cat it's an eccentric watch!'

- Slackers' Club Facebook Page

In order to enjoy this free film, you do need to become a member of the Slackers' Club.  This is completely free, and just requires a few details such as your name, email, phone number, etc.  You can easily join at the cinema before the film on the day.  You do need to have your Exeter University student card with you. You can also join the club through their Facebook page: Slackers' Club on Facebook

For those who don't know where the Picturehouse Cinema is, we will be meeting outside Next, at the top of the High Street at 8pm and head down to the cinema together.

Friday 28th to Sunday 30th October - South West Freshers' Extravaganza - REMINDER

Just a reminder that this coming weekend is the South West Freshers' Extravaganza in Keynsham, near Bristol.

The camp costs £30, inclusive of campsite fees, activities, and food.  We will be getting the train there on Friday afternoon, and back on Sunday afternoon.  In order to get the cheapest rail tickets possible, we are looking to book soon, and preferably get group saver discounts.  Please let us know asap if you would like to attend.  You can do this by emailing exeterssago@gmail.com, or writing on the wall of our Facebook group.

We hope to get tickets booked within the next couple of days.  If you decide later in the week that you would like to attend the camp (and we hope that you will!), then you will still be able to come, but train prices may have increased by then.  It promises to be a great weekend of camping, activities, and socialising with other SSAGO clubs from the South West.

Friday 28th to Sunday 30th October - South West Freshers' Extravaganza

Next weekend sees all of the SSAGO clubs in the South West meeting up for a Freshers' Extravaganza camp in Keynsham, near Bristol.  So far clubs from Plymouth, Bristol, and UWE have confirmed they're attending, and of course SAGE will also be putting in an appearance for what promises to be a great weekend!

The weekend will cost £30, plus transport costs.  We are planning on getting the train there and back, which is currently around £15 return with a 16-25 railcard.

Activities for the weekend are still to be confirmed, but what we do know is that the theme of the camp is 'assassins'.  More details should soon be posted on the South West Freshers' Extravaganza Facebook event:  Click here.

If you would like to attend, then please let the SAGE committee know asap, either by email to exeterssago@gmail.com, writing on the SAGE with DofE Facebook page (click here), or speaking to us at tonight's social (pub quiz/skittles at The Ship and Pelican, Heavitree.  Meet outside Next at top of the High Street at 6:45pm, or at the pub at 7:30pm).  The quicker we can get numbers, the quicker we can book train tickets, and the cheaper they will be!

Thursday 20th October - Pub Quiz/Skittles - TONIGHT!!!

Tonight's meeting will be a Pub Quiz/Skittles evening at the Ship and Pelican pub in Heavitree.  This will be a joint evening with Exeter Network and Scout Active Support.

For those of you who don't know where this is, or if you just want some company on the walk there, then we are meeting outside Next at the top of the High Street at 6:45pm, in order to stroll down to the pub in time for a 7:30pm start.  Any St Luke's students, or others who don't want to meet at Next, we'll see you at the Ship and Pelican at 7:30pm.

Thursday 6th October - Beach BBQ - TONIGHT!!!

Tonight will see the first of our socials for this term, and hopefully the weather will hold out for us!

The plan is to meet outside the Great Hall at 6pm, and to get the train down to Exmouth and the beach.  Food is provided by the society, but you will need to bring your own drinks (alcoholic or non-alcoholic), and money and railcards (if you have them) for the train.  The fare is not normally more than a few pounds for a return journey.

Please also bring your membership cards, or alternatively a receipt showing that you have paid membership so that we can issue you with a membership card.  You can still sign up online by logging into the Students' Guild website, and finding 'SAGE with DofE' under the Recreational sub-heading.  Failing all of the above, bring £7 cash and we can sort you out with a membership.

If the weather cans out on us, then we will still meet outside the Great Hall at 6pm, but will come up with an alternative plan.  Any questions or problems, don't hesitate to email us at exeterssago@gmail.com
