21 Jun 11 - 10:28 AM (#3173869) Subject: Herga's 130th (UK) on Mon 27 June 2011 From: George Papavgeris A special evening is planned at herga for next Monday 27th June 2011: To celebrate the "joint 130th" celebration of our President (HergaKitty) and Secretary (Mike Sparks) we are holding an Open Evening with a difference: Special appearances by Lynne Heraud & Pat Turner, Les Sullivan, Graeme Knights, Moses & The Ref and yours truly. Prices held at £2 for members and £2:50 for non-members, just like a normal singaround club night. There will also be subsidised beer, wheelchair access and free parking. Also, heckling opportunities aplenty and intelligent banter as a matter of course. Be there, or .... no, BE there! |

See you in Whitby in August! Kitty |

It was lovely to see so many old (and new) friends - thank you, all of you. And especially thanks to Jenny Sparks for the cake, and to Lynne and Pat who (as ever) excelled themselves. I'm glad I waited until I got home before I opened their birthday card! Kitty xx |

Some of the sopngs involved actions and some even had props (Lynne's speculum was doing the rounds of the audience, last I saw). All in all a very tasteful evening! Went home humming Lynne and Pat's closing number. |

Les - you obviously ate a slice from Mike's side, because Jenny saved my side for later, so I will give you one from my side when I see you.... Kitty |

Have you had any offers yet !? woman of leisure that you have become !! ? This afternoon I enjoyed meeting Mike Sparks in one of his other roles. Methinks he enjoyed chucking kayaks into the water, from a height, particularly if they had live bodies on board ! I also saw him make a bit of a splash preceeded by deft hip action . Thats how he keeps fit. Tell us more about this Rosie from the Hood, what's her angle? |
