July 2019 Newsletter

The first half of the year has flown past and this month CHUG will be two years old. A big thank you to everyone who comes along to The Lloyds, plays at our gigs and has supported us over the last two years.

We are getting Doodle Poll up and running which will arrive in your inbox and you can say if you can attend a prospective gig or not. It will give us a better idea of who is coming along to a gig. We will try it out next week to see who is coming to the St Hugh's gig on Saturday 13th July, so it would be good if you could use it and we can see if it works. If you are planning on coming to a gig please come to The Lloyds in the preceding weeks to make sure you are familiar with the gig song book. 

We will also be amending our website to show a calendar of events.

Songbook

A revised CHUG songbook with some new songs will be landing in your inbox in mid July for you to download.

Thank you to everyone who suggested a song. As well as the songs that we chose, we now have a lot of songs in reserve for when we next want to update the book.

We will be meeting at The Lloyds every Thursday in July from 7.30pm -9.30pm. 

We have had a few new people coming along on a Thursday, so welcome to them. See you at The Lloyds.
