Friday sandwich lunch





I have just had my sandwich lunch provided by the Bristol University Christian Union where I met three delightful American students who have just arrived in Bristol. What a professional and committed task the Christian Union perform. Don’t forget these guys and girls are students the same as you and face the same pressures and deadlines. We have big numbers on Fridays and the numbers are rising; and could beat Wednesday’s for numbers soon. I find that the carrot dips don’t hang around long and you have to get in there quick! I also like the crispy type things. Actually I’m not allowed to eat these as well, but don’t tell Xiaomei.

So there you have it a blog report on the three types of meal served each week at BISC during term time. As the weather improves (hopefully) and we enter spring and early summer, the trees are in blossom, the daffodils, tulips and wallflowers are in bloom, you can sit outside in the BISC garden with your cream tea or lunch. Having your meal outside can be fun as well as a bit of a challenge. You can admire the panoramic view of nature all in her beauty and share your selected meal with wasps and other creepy crawlies that also blossom in the warm spring and summer weather.

Finally, whether you go to Monday’s cream tea, or the Wednesday’s and Friday’s lunches why not say a big thank you to those who have prepared and served this meal to you. A BIG than you can go a long way.
