6 full dinner tickets left, a few more after dinner left. Anyone from any year want these? The ball is actually going to be even better than we imagined. We've booked some cool new things just this week. Post on eemec or ring

If you haven't yet picked up your ticket, you really need to as there will be no entry without it! Dave has the tickets and will be back in Edinburgh by Thurs, so you can either pick them up from his flat or at graduation on Friday. Any problems, you can e-mail fyc05@hotmail.com

For those of you who don't already know the coaches are departing George Square at 1745 sharp on Saturday 16th to Stirling Castle. There are drinks deals at Native State from 1630 with details on the card which can be picked up from the faculty office. VB and Andrew will be in charge of the coaches on the night but they WILL NOT be hanging around waiting for late comers. If you miss the bus then you will have to arrange your own transport to the ball! Those people who are staying in Stirling and not getting bus (one way or both) we would be really grateful if you would add your names to the eemec thread.

Dear Finalist 2005,

FYC2005 graduation ball committee, 27/4/4

1) Date - Saturday 16th July 2005

2) Venue - Stirling Castle

3) Ticket Price - this won't be confirmed until much closer to the event as I t is impossible to know how much tickets will be until we have sorted out sponsorship (see other thread by Claire). Tickets will be under £100

4) Ticket Availability - There are 300 tickets available. Everybody in our year is GUARANTEED a ticket if they want one. The remaining tickets will be available for partners. In the event of more people wanting to bring a partner than there are tickets available, this will be decided by a draw. This is unavoidable but it is the only fair way to sort it, and it has worked in previous years.

5) After the ball - we are planning to put coaches to and from Stirling for the ball, but many people may want to spend the night in Stirling to make a whole night of it (at the moment we are planning the ball to continue till 3am). A few people have already booked rooms at the 4 star Stirling Highland Hotel (reservations 01786272728), but there are a range of accomodation options including a Travelodge, Holiday Inn, youth hostels, and a range of bed and breakfasts and other hotels.

As always everyone is welcome to come along to the graduation ball meetings. We had a great turn out at the most recent meeting where we discussed the above along with food and drink so if you have any ideas or opinions on what you'd like at YOUR ball please come along to the next meeting. Watch eemec for details.
