A long standing tradition of the society holds that on the social that happens to fall on the event of Ladies day at Ascot (3rd Thursday in June), that members should arm themselves with peanuts and prepare for coming of the Hat.

This happens every year on the 25th of May as a tribute to the late Douglas Adams. As a reference to the awesome Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, fans carry with them a towel in his honour. Do you know where your towel is?

Although the exact date and year has long been lost to the sands of time, it is believed the IFIS is turning 40 this year! (or possibly last year or maybe even the year before....)

Star Wars day is every year on the 4th of May. It is derived from a pun on the Jedi phrase "May the force be with you", namely "May the Fourth be with you".

This day is celebrated as the Fall of Sauron. As of 2003 that day is known as Tolkien Reading Day, an event to encourage the use of Tolkien's works in education and library reading groups.
