Hi everyone, Just to remind you that we have a visiting speaker this Friday who will be presenting the history of Hurst Castle. Should be interesting.

Hi Everyone, Jut a reminder to all those who wish to join us for lunch on the 8th April following the presentation on the history of Hurst Castle. I must have your payment of £12.50 per person for the lunch by next Friday please along with your choice of food as I have to submit numbers to the club. Danny

Hi Everyone, My apologies but due to this event falling on Good Friday I have taken the decision to rearrange it for the 8th April instead of the 15th so as to give the wider membership access to the event. This is totally an oversight on my part and hope that the new date does not inconvenience you. Regards Danny

Hello everyone, I am sorry to be a nag but to make tentative group reservations I need to know possible numbers for the intended visits to the Water Cress line and the Amberley Museum, even if they do seem a long way off. So could you please let me know if you are interested in either of these. Should there be sufficient numbers for the visit to Amberley I will look to higher a coach. But we would be looking for at least 40 members, which could include wives, partners and friends. Not impossible to achieve. If interested please let me know either by phone, email, the forum or at the club on a Friday. Regards Danny Roberts

I am pleased to announce that on the 23rd April we have booked a guest speaker to talk to us about how Southampton faired during the `Blitz` of World War 2. Also to bring us all together after such a disruption to our lives, caused by Covid and to kickstart the social side of our shed we have organised a two course lunch for those who wish to join us, at £10.00 per head. This will be held at Fawcetts Field venue. More information to follow nearer the time. Lets hope restrictions will be reduced and allow the event to take place.

Good news for everyone who enjoyed the quiz during the last lockdown. By request the quiz is to return within the next few days. So please keep an eye on your shed web site.
