Happy New Year

Last post of 2010. Happy New Year to all who have enjoyed the hall this year.

Hall funds update

Met with Village Hall Fund trustees this evening. Draft minutes have been issued - which outline conditions for access to £38.5k of village funds. Will share the minutes with the hall management committee when trusees have approved them.

Snowy Saturday Party

We cleared a path through the snow leading to the hall front door, in preparation for yesterdays childrens party. Opening the inner front door brought a wave of warmth, indicating the heating was doing its job.

Yesterdays 5 year olds party looked like a lovely event, with one family pitching up with an indoor basket ball net. The Christmas tree and lighting in the hall add an extra something to atmosphere.

The roof does not have gaps in the snow to betray the fact the heating is working (apart from the air vents at the top of the roof). This suggests that the hall is quite well insulated.

We have table cloths with Molly for cleaning and ironing. With Dan helping with the hall cleaning, operation of the hall is less of an effort and feels sustainable.

MP Surgery today

Robert Buckland MP is holding a sugery in the hall this evening from 5:30pm until 8:30pm. Please come along and raise any issues you may have.
