Jennifer Holland Hey all so the poll is in and with 8 votes out of 40 the Pitt Rivers Museum is the winner by over 4 votes. I have started to email coach companies with new quotes for an oxford trip, the journey is 2 hours so i have planned to set off at 8.30 and return at 4.30, we can not stay later due to the working hours of the driver. Weekends to be best so have sent enquiries into the 19th and 20th Nov and the 26th or 27th Nov going on one of these days. I also now have the person to contact at Oxford to inform them of our trip as we wil be classified as a group- Heres the memo-if it could be turned into email format id be grateful or tonight if someone can tell me how to send a message to all i will do- Have also started making contact with other societies and halls residences to spread the word-All I need now are members to be created, membership fees in and money to hire a coach.
