*Murder & Mayhem* night

05/06/2008

Murder & Mayhem* night at RPAH.

Where: RPAHSoc Common room for food and drinks, then KPEC 4.02 (above the common room) for scary times.

When: Friday, June 13, *from 5pm*

What next: The pub from 8pm.

We figure the best way to choose the movie is to bring a few suggested scaries (currently Sweeney Todd & 28 days later) and have the brave folks who've turned up make the decision as we chow down. Of course, being here for the RPAH Med Students, we are open to suggestions, so when you RSVP, just include what you think would look good on a big screen this Friday the 13th.

In short, the plan is, mosy on after lectures to your neighourhood RPAH common room, grab some food, relax for a few hours, put on your party face and head out on the town after- sorted!

Your frightening RPAHSoc Functions peeps.

Scurbs Extravaganza!!

03/05/2008

Scrubs Extravaganza - A 6 episode screening of Scrubs
