As the days get darker and the weather colder, the time fast approaches to do what Scandinavians do best: to rally in the Cambridge winter gloom for some wholesome, good ol' julehygge/-mys.

Demand for tickets was high this year, and to be able to accommodate most requests we've moved the formal to Homerton College. This not only gives more people a chance to enjoy the evening, but we will also be given some free bottles of wine!

To allow for the society account to stay in balance with the new ticket prices, please bring £2 with you to pay Tomas at the bar before we proceed to start the dinner.

Yet again the menu looks mouthwateringly delicious:
