We will have a hot and cold buffet meal of traditional pub food
(including vegetarian fare), and on the bus
you will be issued with a voucher for a drink from the bar. We
recommend the Everard's Tiger, but you can have what you wish.
There will be a shove ha'penny
tournament (single elimination with modified rules) starting as soon
as possible (with prizes), a traditional pub quiz starting at 9 pm for
4-person teams (with prizes), and various other traditional pub games
available during the evening.
The bus will return to campus around 11 pm.
Some traditional English dishes are Toad in the Hole, Bubble and Squeak,
Cock-a-Leekie Soup, Spotted Dick, Bug-in-a-Bucket, Willie One-Polyp,
Tonsil-and-Toast, Whack-a-Doodle Johnson, and Fester Pudding. Attractive
displays of these dishes-- some of them dating back to the sixteenth
century -- can be found in bars called "pubs", where the English
traditionally gather to drink, glance at the food, and continue to
drink. --- Dave Barry
GENERAL INFORMATION
For our evening out on Friday 3 April we will be visiting a
traditional pub in the city centre serving good food and particularly
good ale.

We will depart by traditional double-decker bus from the halls of
residence at 7:05 pm to arrive at the pub around 7:25 pm (time subject
to revision). The bus will return at 11, but we will help arrange
cabs back for those who want them. Cabs are available by going to one
of the numerous taxi ranks in the city centre, or by calling Cable
