This year we have chosen to introduce a number of "informal evenings" which will give us the opportunity to talk about or practice what the members currently want to know or learn.
Hopefully a large mug of coffee and a less formal environment will encourage us all in our favourite hobby!
Most evenings start at 7:30pm and we finish around 9:30pm
