HAPPY NEW YEAR GLUGGERS.

If January is your detox month then you will be pleased to hear that Brighton Glug is returning in February, just in time to throw the New Year resolutions on the fire and get stuck into some more Creative Notworking.

50 students and graduates. 50 professionals. Two bands. Two DJs. Some beers. And unfortunately we will be there too.

Grip your beer white-knuckled as your agility and nerves are put to the test. Or just help us unite the current and future leaders of the design and advertising industries at utilising a mixture of beer, chat and music.

Notworking™

See you all in the New Year, we’re taking January off, so keep an eye on the blog. Happy Xmas Gluggers! x

Glug Munny Auction – Sore heads?

Our homebrew is shaping up nicely for the Xmas period – Glug Beer [Source]

Big thanks to all of you that came last week. I hope everyone had a great time and enjoyed the auction, bands and event in general. We’re really pleased with the turnout and it’s fantastic how we managed to raise so much money for Barnados, so thanks so much as it’s ALL down to you guys!

The auction and money from tickets exceeded our expectations and we’re really happy to have raised £4604 in total.

Also big thanks to the Sotheby’s, DAHRA, Barnados, the bands, Glug crew, Mcfaul Studio – for buying a load of dolls, the talk and glugging the bar dry. Also huge ’spect to Saif and our sponsors at Digital Gurus, who came along gave away a load of free drink and even managed to bag themselves 3 Dolls spending some serious ‘munny’ (ho, ho, ho!) along the way. They wanted to wish everyone an awesome festive period and if you are looking for work in the New Year or for some talented people to join your team, drop the guys a line, I’m sure they would be more than happy to help!

We’ll obviously let you know about events in 2010, but may be taking a bit of a break in January to enjoy some time off. As always post your feedback on the meetup and let us know what you’d like improving / changing about the events.

Happy Christmas from us @glug.
