 Catering Notice

The Committee regret to inform you that the services of Kingsway Catering are, at very short notice to us, unfortunately no longer available. The Committee is working hard to resolve this issue quickly and with as little impact to our members as possible. We trust that you will bear with us and hope that you can understand that for the immediate future we will have to operate a reduced catering service. If anyone is able to help, please contact the office.

Please note that no hot food will be available in the wet bar this weekend so please make your own alternative arrangements. However, the bar will be open as usual and snacks will be available

Ropes Evening: Splice Your Mainbrace

Some comments after the event:
A very interesting evening, made all the better for having plenty of time at the end for the practical stuff, playing with bits of rope and talking to everyone else.
it was definitely informative and very enjoyable. Turns out I've been doing all my splicing wrong for years....... Hey ho back to the drawing board
A brilliant evening and a great turnout. Thanks again to all involved in making it happen!
