Feeling down and finally missing home? Still feeling lost and lonely in this alien place? Or are you just a social animal wanting to meet more friends than you can handle?

Free food and drinks and friends up for grabs! Come on over to satiate your hunger and get to know other fellow members and friends of the MSSM. Share stories and experiences, lose yourself in idle chatter before the pressure of university finally sets in!

Don’t be shy. Bring along friends too!

Day-trip to the Lake District

Reply

The MSSM would like to present you with an opportunity to visit the famed Lake District!! We are organising a daytrip to Winderemere, the largest of the English Lakes, where the air is fresh and invigorating and the picturesque landscape is something that avid photographers would die for!

Come join us for a day out of fun with nature. Sit on the many ferries that cruise along the length of the 10 mile long lake (tickets range from 6pounds to 15 pounds [for the Freedom of the Lake], kayak/canoe by the banks of the calm waters, cycle (7pounds for half day) through the woods to discover hidden castles or just have a beautiful cup of tea with traditional English scone by the water! Whatever it is, this place has it! It’s a sure deal away from the hustle and bustle of Manchester and Uni life!

The details of the trip are per the details attached with this events page, as wel as the following:

Meeting Point: Steve Biko Building Student Union, Oxford Road
Departure: 7.00am
Arrival at Bowness: 9.00am
Departure from Bowness back to University: 7.30pm
Price: 12 pounds (members)/15 pounds (non-members)

The ticket price includes only a return journey by bus from University of Manchester-Bowness-University of Manchester. Once at Bowness, the centre point of Windermere, you will be allowed a free and easy day about. But I will personally take those interested to Ambleside for the more physical/nature activities ie boating, kayaking, cycling etc. Not to worry, I will furnish you all with further details on how to get about once there.

If you are interested, contact me ASAP either via Facebook message, email at shang_neng@hotmail.com or mobile 07552702599.

Confirmation at this page will not guarantee you a space, this is merely for publicity purposes. Tickets sold are unfortunately non-refundable, and the President reserves the right to refund under exceptional circumstances.

Best regards,

Neng
Events Coordinator

*****************************************************

“Windermere in the Lake District – ten and a half miles long and 219 feet deep – is England’s largest lake. Its name comes from the Scandinavian for ‘lake of a man called Vinandr’.

Ambleside is half a mile north from the lake. This bustling town is full of tea shops, restaurants and walking equipment shops. It’s a great starting point for many different walks.

Waterhead at the north end of Windermere is a picturesque stop for the cruisers, with cafes and a garden centre.

Bowness is about halfway down on the eastern shore and full of shops, restaurants, cafes, attractions, hotels and Bed and Breakfasts.”
