Responses

  1. any trip to Whitby?

    • Hello
      I think the next trip to Whitby will be for the folk week which starts on 18th August. If not then then definitely at some point in the Summer Vacation.
      Thanks
      Jane (College Administrator)

  2. Hello, Can I get a receipt for my order?

    • The online store will send you a receipt for the payment as soon as you have made it. I then send out the confirmation email with the information about pickup times etc. when I have time. Usually during my office hours (9am-1pm Mon-Fri). If confirmation emails have not been received by the Friday prior to a trip then people should email me!
      Thanks

  3. Is any trip to Whitby to Bronte Musem in summer vacation? You know,many of us missed the trip to Bronte Musem last time because of the exam and term paper.

    • We haven’t finalised the trips for the summer vacation – we’ll keep your suggestion in mind when we start planning them!
      Thanks

  4. Hi, is there any trip to Bicester or Chester?

    • Hello
      We only recently went to Chester so I don’t think we’ll be going back until the summer vacation at the earliest. I’ve never been to Bicester and have no idea what’s there -i’ll talk to Davey and see what he thinks, but again it wouldn’t be until the summer vacation… Thanks Jane (Administrator)

      • If you go to Biecester, I’m sure that’ll be extremely attractive to Chinese students. ;) At least im in.

      • I’ve done some checking and I assume you are talking about Bicester Village Outlet Mall just outside Oxford, rather than a trip to the market town of Bicester itself. By coach it owuld take approximately 4 hours to get to this destination so it’s probably too far for a day trip. It would probably be quicker by train so maybe you could look into getting the train with some friends instead.
        If it’s shopping trips to outlets you want then i’ll see what I can do – but I do like to balance out the shopping with some more interesting trips too!
        Thanks
        Jane
