Gala Dinner money due

Fellow SMRUFC Members,

It is once again time for you to dry clean those suits, polish those
shoes and desperately ask any girl you know to accompany you to this
years Gala Dinner.

The venue is the Holiday Inn, the date is 14th November and the meet
at the hotel between 7 and 7.30 to eat at 8. £30 will provide you with
a three course meal (the pudding’s soft enough so you won’t need your
spoons), half a bottle of wine and some old guy masquerading as a DJ
so you can carry on the party all night (as long as its not after
1am).

The old boys this year are taking part in a golf day prior to the
dinner to entice greater numbers. There are only 90 places in total
that will be sold on a first come first served basis. You’re all
encouraged to bring wives (Rees), fiancés (Tissa), girlfriends
(Sellens), partners (that’ll be Pops for me) or even some girl you
woke up next to the week before (Gaynor). I advise you to do this as
they’ll only moan when they’re told they’re not allowed at old boys.

Every year the event is a success but this year we’re really trying to
increase the numbers of old boys. Last time we spent an evening at the
Holiday Inn (Old Boys 2008) it was truly a night to savour and in my
top 10 at university. It’s your chance to meet some of the former
members of the club, who now provide us with drinking money whilst on
tour, and have a jolly good drink with them. Give your cheques (made
payable to USUS Medics Rugby) to either myself, Dave Allanson or R-reg
(Roshan), as soon as you can to avoid disappointment.

Yours in rugby

Membership fees due now for 09/10 Season

Hello Club Members

Unfortunately it has come to that time of year when we must once again
rob you all blind for the financial well being of the club.

In the next two weeks we would like to collect fees off all ongoing
members of the club (not freshers). Could you please bring cheques for
£40 made payable to USUS Medics Rugby to any training sessions or
matches and either hand them to myself, Dave Allanson or the mighty
(at heart) treasurer R-reg (Roshan). Any current members that have not
paid by 24th October will have to pay £45 for making me chase you.

Whilst your student loans are burning holes in your training gear why
not add another £30 to the cheque and reserve your place for the Gala
Dinner on 14th November, further details will follow.

Yours in rugby

Club Songs and Games available to download

My request for club songs and games on the forum was answered by quite a few of you, but no one took up the challenge with as much Passion as Michael 'St Foxy' Fox

Behold his creation!! - a club hymn-book in the style of the bible, containing a pretty comprehensive list of all our club songs and games, including Yogi Bear, Tampax Factory, and of course: Men of Sheffield. It also contains songs that we just like to sing, such as Rock the Casbah, You've Lost that Loving Feeling, and American Pie!

So get downloading and learning before Tour, as there's now no excuse for not knowing!
