Laurel & Hardy Christmas film Show next Tuesday
Hello Laurel & Hardy friends,
This is just a reminder that our Christmas film show will be next TUESDAY, December 10th, 7.30pm till 10.30 pm at our NEW venue at “The Victory Club” at 75 Station Road, Beeston, Nottingham, NG9 2AW. The venue is located across the road from our old venue, the White Lion pub. I understand that after going through the front door you turn left to enter the large function room. Be aware that parking might be tricky as it is in central Beeston..I understand that there is on street parking available in the side streets and there is a large Tesco carpark but do check this out as there will be limits on how long you can park there. If I get time I’ll check out parking tomorrow and let you all know.
All are welcome and entry is free.
Yes, it’s our Christmas film show……and as expected we will be screening the Boys in some of their best talkie shorts that cover the Christmas festive season – and of course, our annual screening of the Boys selling Christmas trees in Big Business! We also be showing another fine animated cartoon featuring Stan and Ollie – this time its episode no 80 from Larry Harmon’s “The Laurel & Hardy Show” entitled “The Slipper Slip Up” which is based on the Cinderella fairy tale. It’s very L&H and so this should be a very good “shoe in fit” for our Christmas show! Doh!! I’ll see if I can find some other L&H based rarities too.
We will have some nibbles and mince pies – but as we weren’t sure on numbers and what to expect in the new venue we won’t be fuddling this year…but we will have plenty of nibbles!
We also intend to run the usual raffle with some great prizes just for Christmas – but, as usual all donations are gratefully accepted.
All are welcome…so please feel free to invite your other halves, family and friends.
So, hopefully, we’ll see you next Tuesday. If not, I wish you a Laurel Christmas and a Hardy New Year. Our next meeting afterwards is provisionally penned in for Tuesday January 21st at the Victory Club. However, we will be actively searching in the interim to find a new and permanent venue that will take us back to the usual 3rd Wednesday in the month, that is better priced and has better car parking options. Thanks for all your suggestions so far, but if you know of any other places that may fit our requirements – do let us know.
Fraternally Yours,
Dave T
