HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL 

Hi Folks,

Just thought we would drop you a line to let you know what is happening at your Folk Club in the New Year.

The New Year is a very significant one for the club as it marks our 35^th Anniversary. The fact that the club has been running for so long is not only a great tribute to Mick who started the club and Ian who has carried on the good work but also to you, the members.  

Without your support through the years we could not have kept going.

To you all we say a very big thank you!

The New Year starts with a Singers Night on the 6^th January and gathers pace with the first appearance at the club of George Papavgeris on the 13^th January. George may be a new name to some of you but he is carving out a reputation as a songwriter of the highest calibre. Another Singers Night on 20^th January paves the way for the welcome return, on 27^th January of Jez Lowe.

Throughout February we will be celebrating our 35^th Anniversary. The celebrations kick off on 3^rd February with Pete Kelly and Caelen Cross and continues with the return of Tom Napper and Tom Bliss on 10^th February.

The 17^th February is our Birthday Party and sees the immense talent that is Bill Caddick.  Bill needs very little introduction and has been a fairly consistent visitor to the club over the past 35 years and we could get no one better to help us celebrate. There may also be a few surprises on this date too….!

Our month long celebrations end on the 24^th February with a visit from Bob Fox, one of the most respected artists on the folk scene today.

We look forward to seeing you soon and please do tell your friends about us too.
