Well hello everyone and thanks for picking the October copy of the Guild Book.
From what's been said Our Clubs seem to be ticking over nicely which sounds good,
conrary to rumers going round that various clubs are closing which is upseting to
members and suporters, so please stop listening to all the gossip and wait (hopefully not)
something pfficial happens.The August showcase was held at a near capacity Meadow Street
Labour Club which was pleasing to see,we only managed to get Two Acts unfortunatly due
to the fact in this day and age they are hard to come by,,so if you or your friends come accros
any good singers,comedians etc please could you approach them and
if intrested please give them Ann Bretherton's details as on the front of the Guild book please.
Back to the showcase well as usual Eric started us off with his usual friendly banter and a 
couple of numbers to put in the mood,.then the First act was two bearded chaps aptley 
named The Beardy Boys whom played live with guitar and percusion A nice 40 minutes
of honest talent whom went down prety well, after the Interval we presented Steve Sutton
whom again was a talented act singing well known numbers that pleased many he also
sang for 40 minutes which was appreaciated by to both acts.All in all a good afternoon
of entertainment.Thanks must go Concert Sec Joe Astley,Steward Joanne,
the caterers whom served some nice Hot Pot and the rest of the Meadow's commitee who made the day possible.


DON'T FORGET OUR COMMAND SHOW AT BAMBER BRIDGE CATHOLIC ON FRIDAY 15TH NOVEMBER AT 7.30pm

Hello everyone and welcome to The November Guild and Thank You for picking this copy up.
Well the shorter days are now upon us and the Winter months ahead and with various
activities coming up, I really honestly hope that you keep supporting your Clubs.
Well what can I report on The September Showcase held at St Gregory's those whom 
attended will know what i'm on about. We were supposed to have 3 acts appearing and 
NONE yes NONE turned up due to various Reasons/Excuses which was a dissapointment
for Ann who tirelessly tries to book these acts,so please don't blame her and the Exec
Commitee for this hopefully one off.
Well the afternoon wasn't wasted because our GREAT Compere Eric stepped up to give
us two spots of wonderful vocal talent and hardly anyone left the building from the nice
and valued attendance that all enjoyed it all.I hope that the forthcoming showcases get back to normal.St.Gregory's club was as always most welcoming with Alan Hmilton the Con Sec and
the rest of the committe  who ensured the Day went off as good as possible also the excellent Bar Staff for keeping our glasses filled, We hope that LET DOWN DAY will be the last but one thing we can remember when we look back it was THE ERIC JONES SHOW.
 
REMINDER THAT YOUR COMMAND SHOW AT BAMBER BRIDGE CATHOLIC CLUB
WILL TAKE PLACE ON FRIDAY 15th NOVEMBER AT 7.30pm.TICKETS ARE £5 FROM 
YOUR CON SEC OR ON THE DOOR (SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY.
