ASRA London Social

January 20, 2007 at 3:29 pm · Filed under Events

Hello - did you miss us? Oh, well, anyway, we’re back and we’re having another social. Plenty of warning this time, it will be at The Royal George, Goslett Yard, off Charing Cross Road, WC2H 0EA (map) in London’s Trendy West End at 6pm on Thursday 22 March. Put it in your diaries now!

The venue has been personally booked by Xfm’s weekend breakfast presenter Marsha Shandur, who once had a party there and says its dead good. They’ll be a small quiz-based element and all the usual drunken palaver, but this event will be nothing without you and your student radio friends.

So. Clear that date. Forward this to all your friends. And please please email social@studentradioalumni.com to let us know that you are coming. We don’t charge to get in, just ask that you join our (very occasional) mailing list.

If you’ve never been before these ASRA socials are top drinking events with a little bit of networking on the side - we’re all doing jolly well in our careers thank you very much, and whilst that’s undoubtedly down to raw talent (*cough*) a little bit of who you know can’t go amiss, can it? eh? eh? You can also think of it as your station’s reunion, that we’re organising, so contact your ex-student radio mates and tell them!

See you in March!

Love

The ASRA Committee

Hi all,
Would be nice to see a few old familiar faces again at some point… Why not hold one of these socials at the weekend, or at least on a Friday? Some of us have to work, you know…
Granted, I would have further to travel than most, living as far south in the Netherlands as you can get. But there must be plenty of other old SRA people not living in the London area, and thus not being able to (a) get to London for 6pm and (b) having to get home and be up at the crack of dawn in wherever it is they live?

Incidentally - who does go to these things? The only committee names I know are Matt Deegan and Helen Grimes. Has Pam from Jam been spotted at an ASRA do?

Well, who knows, maybe see y’all at a future get-together.

Hi Anna,

Long time no hear! Pam from Jam has been lost to the world - any sightings?

Good shout on a weekend event, we can try that next time. If you (or anyone) wants to organise a more local to them event, we’re happy to support it. So get in touch! Are there any others in the Netherlands to create our first outside Europe event?

Matt.
