The guest and club nights poster is attached for your reference.

Malcolm, would you be kind enough to print two colour copies for the club please.

I haven't booked a guest for December or January and, unless I receive strong urging to change that from more than one club member, I don't intend to do so.

For next year I have booked so far: 18 Feb, Norah Rendell and Brian Miller, this recently married duo are a tremendous collective talent and thoroughly nice people whom I met in Victoria on Vancouver Island last year, they will be doing mostly traditional Irish which they have both studied in Ireland; 18 Mar, Dick Miles, a regular on the maritime scene; 15 Apr, LocTup Together, Chris and Ian's debut at The Drum, but we had two marvellous nights with them in White Hart days; 13 May, Geoff Higginbottom will be back for his usual thoroughly enjoyable visit and 17 Jun, Roy Clinging.

I am also trying to get Pint & Dale back mid year if I can, having missed a very good night with them in Feb this year, and I still have hopes of getting Nancy Kerr & James Fagan at some point and Cloudstreet in October.

If anyone has a particular wish to have a guest of their choice appear, please let me know.

A reminder also that new membership starts as at 1 Jul 09. We have had twenty membership renewals so far.

Don't forget to let me know if you want a set on Thursday.
