What did the overly excited gardener do when spring finally arrived? He wet his plants!
Morning Furness, today is a VERY important day because…
NOMINATIONS FOR THE JCR ARE OPEN!
Yep that’s right, if you want to run for a position in the upcoming JCR elections, you can nominate yourself on this website: http://nominations.lusu.co.uk/nominations/board
Good luck to anyone running, and if you have any questions at all, email our Chairperson Nick Dearman via [email protected]
Nominations close at 4pm on Friday!
Hustings
Hustings will help you to make the best decision when voting (and also be a really good night).
‘What is Hustings?’ I hear you ask? Once the period for nominations for positions is over, Hustings is the chance to hear all the candidates ideas. Each candidate will present a short speech, and you’ll have the chance to ask them questions about what they’ve said. It’s a way to help you make the best choice possible when it comes to voting.
It’s no joke when I say that Hustings is one of Furness’ biggest events of the year, on a similar level to the 15 Hour in importance and fun!
Make sure you’re there, with all your flatmates and friends for what is going to be an awesome, awesome night.

CANDLELIT TOUR OF HISTORIC LEIGHTON HALL – FRIDAY 4TH DECEMBER 2015.
As the nights draw in, a candlelit tour at Leighton Hall is a wonderful way to experience this breath taking historic house in a totally different way.
This is an exclusive package for pre booked groups which will bring a glimmer of light to the dark, winter evenings.
Explore Leighton by flickering candlelight, guided by the lady of the house, Mrs Gillow Reynolds or one of her enthusiastic team, visitors will be able to discover the fascinating history of Leighton Hall. On the tour of the house you stop in the old chapel, visit the bedroom known as “The Battlefield” and share enchanting secrets about the history of the Gillow Reynolds family.
Your atmospheric tours ends with mulled wine and mince pies served in front of a roaring open fire in the magnificent Music Room.
To book for this event see Bev in the College Office. The subsidized cost of the tour is £15.00 including return transport from the University.
A deposit of £5.00 can be made to secure your place. This is always a popular event so don’t miss out, book early!
That’s it for this week Furness, again, good luck to anyone running for JCR!
