NEXT CLUB NIGHT IS WEDNESDAY 15TH OF JANUARY
We start this Newsletter with a reminder. Our club night will be changing from the third Tuesday and moving to the third Wednesday of the month.
We have had to change days as Middleton St George Cricket club can no longer hire us the hall on a Tuesday. We held a vote by show of hands and the motion was passed unanimously. We understand that some people may find it hard to make the change of day; however we have had no choice in the matter. Hopefully some of you who were unable to visit the club on a Tuesday will be able to join us on a Wednesday. We look forward to greeting you. You will be made most welcome.

Our first meeting of the year will be the A.G.M.
Our first meet of the year is the A.G.M. Please come and join us. We need you to help us to keep the club running in the direction that you are happy for it to go. At this meeting we will re elect committee members and fingers crossed present committee are all willing to be re elected. Maybe you are someone that would consider joining us. Now is the time.
We will keep you informed of the state of the clubs financial status. Any questions you have please feel free to ask them. They will be answered as best we can.
Christmas party 2019.
Thanks to all who joined us for another lovely night. I think everyone enjoyed the night. It was nice to see so many of you join us. Thanks to all who donated prizes you really are generous. The buffet went down a treat.

February Club Night is Wednesday 19th of the month.
This will be Members subscription renewal. Please come once again to rejoin our club. We are keeping our renewal fee the same as last year which will be £15. We feel this is is very good value for money. This is the 3rd year we have been able to leave subscription fees unchanged. Remember for this you will receive 11 Newsletters, Public Liability Insurance and club membership. Membership of a club such as this often comes with other benefits i.e a reduction in your car insurance. As Federation members the club is kept informed of proposed changes in legislation and so can help members stay up to date.
For those of you who can’t make it to club night we will be enclosing a renewal form in with February newsletter. Please fill it in and send it to the Secretary at the address at the front of the news letter enclosing a cheque to cover the cost of your membership. Thank you.
We also will have Morgan’s Diary on sale on a first come first served basis as usual.

Did you know....
From Spring 2020, England and Scotland will introduce an opt out system for organ donation, following the example of Wales in December 2015.
Make sure you know how it affects you. It’s important.
When the new law comes into force, there will be a presumption of consent for organ donation unless a person has indicated that they do not wish to donate.
Families will continue to be consulted, and the process will not go ahead without their support.
All adults – those aged over 18 in England and over 16 in Scotland – will be considered as having agreed to donate their own organs when they die unless they record a decision not to donate or are in an excluded group
And Finally
The secret service isn’t allowed to yell “Get down” anymore when the president is about to be attacked. Now they just shout “ Donald duck”.
