CLUB NEWS:
Film club membership for 2008 is now due. It is £8 for the year.
The first film this year is on Wednesday 23rd Jan and is the much
acclaimed
Amazing
Grace. It would be very helpful if you could pay your
subscriptions before the 23 Jan. You can pay on the
night of 23rd Jan, but it takes time and holds things up, so
please try to pay your annual subscriptions in advance to
one of the committee members (See above)
The first meeting in 2008 of the
Film Club will be on Wednesday 23rd January when the film will be
Amazing
Grace - the story of William Wilberforce and the abolition of
slavery. It stars, amongst others, Ioan Gruffudd, Albert Finney
and Michael Gambon.
We are starting a new year of
membership and the joining fee is now £8 per person. There will
still be a £1 fee per film but not in the month you join. A
person can come as a guest only twice even if invited
by different members. Members of 18 and under will still pay a £5
membership.
Further films that we are going to
show are Sea Biscuit, Casino
Royale, Becoming Jane and Atonement.
The hall will open at 7.00 pm for
a prompt 7.300 start and we hope to see as many people as possible.

Film Club - New Season 2007/8
We are about to start our second season of the Film Club - hopefully
better organised than the last. Listed below are the first three
films we intend to show:
September 26 The Painted Veil
October 24 Ladies in Lavender
November 28 The Constant Gardener
The new subscriptions will be due in January and will run for a
year. The price per person will now be £8 - the increase is
necessary
to cover the cost of the Licence that we have to have. - and £1 per
person per session. This is still extremely good value - 10 films
for
£18. We will collect the new subscriptions at the January
meeting. Members are welcome to bring guests but each visitor is
restricted to two meetings per year, even if invited by different
members. Tea or coffee and biscuits will be provided free of charge.

Good news we now have a comprehensive
licence and there will be a performance next week on
Wed. 21 starting at 7.30 prompt - Hall opens 7.00.
One important restriction of licence Terms
& Conditions is that we are not allowed to advertise / publicise
the name of film, but it is a modern film that had great box
office acclaim and was widely requested by the film club members,
particularly those that enjoy country and western music . The usual note
to members is on its way to you and should be with you by the end
of the week. Tea , coffee , biscuits available , but bring own
wine etc.

The Film Club is still in
the process of obtaining the licence needed for the club to operate.
We have now been advised that this will not be available until the new
year and as this is the most economical and only viable way of
operating the club we will have to wait until then to obtain the
necessary licence. We apologise for the delay and hope you will all
bear with us.

We are sorry to
have to tell you that we have to postpone the next two meetings of the
film club. This is due to the fact that we do not yet have the correct
licence in place. This has now been applied for and we hope to
have it in place for the Christmas show. We will, therefore,
extend the season into the summer of next year and/or have an extra film
one month.
We apologize for any inconvenience and if you
have any queries please do not hesitate to get in touch with any members
of the committee. We have been beaten by bureaucracy |
