Tonight is our last "official" club night of the season I believe. We'll have a singaround and tunes from the highly talented members. However we remain open over the summer for our informal sessions (which remain pretty much the same sized crowd as normal).   If you're out and about this part of the world - a warm welcome will be given to all.
