WHATS ON

Junior Disco….. There will be one in February. See below an image of the last Disco of 2004, much fun is being had by all!

 

Dear Editor

With reference to the comments made by your review team under the heading “Gaslight” and printed in the December edition of the Oracle.

 

 As Chairman of the “The Club” I fully agree that a lack of liaison between the two parties was the main cause of the noise problems. This is not the first time that this kind of thing has happened and I can understand how people get upset about it.  After all the hard work that goes into these projects for it to be disrupted, as this was, is not doing any one any good.

 

 On behalf of the committee I would like to apologise for any disruption caused on the night but I can’t apologise for the fact that we had Entertainment. We run “The Club” for the benefit of the people of Overton 365 days of the year, we have Entertainment once every month maximum. We generally book artists 2/3 months in advance, if any organisation gives us notice we can, and will, wherever possible, work around any date. But we have to know about it in advance!!!

 

 In the case of the Overton Amateur Dramatic Society if they give us plenty of notice of their forthcoming productions it is unlikely the problem will occur again.

 

 On a lighter note (and totally tongue in cheek). I did ask a member of your team if he could get a few lines in about our problem (at the The Club) on Disco Nights when our Darts, Dominoes and Snooker players (zzzzzz!!) can’t concentrate or think for the noise from the Hall!!

Before anyone writes in I apologise for that.

 

Yours sincerely

L B Hamiliton (Brian)
