August Meeting 2024 August 18, 2024

Hello Laurel & Hardy friends,
Many thanks for all your well-wishing emails – I’m now fully recovered, back to full health and raring to go and show some of those Laurel & Hardy films we’ve been missing since we last met in Sandiacre, 3 months ago!!  So, I can confirm that our next show will be next Wednesday, August 21st, at the usual place (ie The Bridge Inn, Sandiacre) at the usual time (ie 7.30pm).  All are welcome and yes it’s still free.
In fact, I intend to show the films that I was planning to screen last month before the dreaded Covid struck… these are films where Stan & Ollie are twinned, mixed up up as others or just totally mixed up!!   This will include the 1940s Fox feature “The Bullfighters” where Stan is mistaken for his Mexican bull fighting doppelgänger.  We will also have a small birthday tribute to Thelma Todd, born July 29th.
Our Septober film show will be on the usual third Wednesday in the month..September 18th  when we will be celebrating Jimmy Finlayson & Charlie Hall’s birthdays…..as originally planned for August, this we will make a “by request” evening where YOU get to select the Laurel & Hardy film shorts you want to see that are supported by either Charlie or Jimmy feature or both.

Before then, hopefully, we’ll see you next Wednesday.  Please bring friends and family – all are very welcome.  It will be good to see you all again.
Fraternally Yours,
Dave T
