Apologies that our newsletter is a little late to the website....

For anyone who has had withdrawal symptoms, after we had to cancel last week's session due to an event for the Chorlton Arts Festival being held at The Lloyds. - we are back to meeting as usual, every Thursday in October from 7.30pm to 9.30pm.

Gig News 
A big thank you to everyone who came to the September gigs. They went really well, with some lovely comments from the organisers, and audiences alike, and a great buffet at the Assist Charity gig. We hope you enjoyed them as much as we did.

Two dates for the diary in November. We will send out more details in next month's email.
