<p>A big thank you to all who attended and supported the Macmillan Coffee Morning which we held on our monthly coffee morning,16th September, a cheerful morning with lovely cakes to buy and eat, bric-a-brac and produce! A competition to guess how many sprinklers there were on Colin the caterpillar cake and a hub of lovely friends popping in!<br>This resulted in being able to send a cheque for £280 to Macmillan cancer research. THANK YOU TO YOU All !!</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Condolences for Our Queen</h3>



<p>Thank you to all who popped in and called by to fill the book of condolences in for our wonderful Queen Elizabeth II.</p>



<p>This is being forwarded on and we are so pleased and proud to have been able to commemorate the Platinum jubilee earlier in the year at our very small corner of St. Michaels. Hope you had an amazing day watching the funeral on 19th September, a historical day we will never forget, can still hear those boys marching&nbsp; and see the pageantry and colour for miles.<br>Also a reminder that who ever we are we come into the world with nothing and leave with nothing!</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Autumn</h3>



<p>Shall we switch it on or switch it off? Today we put the heating on and realised that in the heat of summer we had the air con on so lots of cool air blowing! Don’t worry we changed it over and the heat came zooming through, hurray!</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Variety night</h3>



<p>An amazing variety of acts and entertainment awaits in the annual Variety night on sat 22nd October, tickets are £10 to include a ploughman’s supper. Please get tickets from committee members when you can, its a popular evening.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Events in November</h3>



<p>Friday 4th November, a skittles evening, great fun. Tickets £10 to include bangers and mash.<br>A.G.M. on Friday 18th November followed by a curry night. Maybe you would like to join the committee this year, excellent group of people who I can only say work so well together. Let me know if you would like to join us?</p>



<p>Christmas events to follow as well as news about films showing in the hall.</p>
