Into our third year of operation

During last week, a Cub broke a window in the mens toilets. New glass was obtained on Friday and it was fittd this (Sunday) morning. I would say it is as good as new, but the frame is rotten and I think its time we replaced the side (Mens loos and kithen) windows. I have called Mick (our tame builder) and asked him to come and quote us.

In September, it was two years since we re-opened the hall. Income continues to cover running costs and the village is really using the hall.

When I was cleaning up after fitting the glass, I cleaned out the drain below the window. It was full of organic material from the roof. I can't get over how much can accumulate in only two years!

BAU update

A sign of a busy hall is no action on the blog... It's business as usual with busy booking schedule that currently includes some keep fit, puppy training, slimming world, Scouts, Cubs and Beavers, plus party bookings and other uses for the hall.

Operation has been straight forward with only minor things like a broken window to repair (result of a recent family party)...

We don't have too many free slots during weekday evenings but tend of have weekends available for hire. At £12 per hour, this has to the cheapest non-commercial rate around.

Weeds, Ceiling and hall use

The hall is being used every week day with private functions often taking place. For example, last night saw a very enegetic 18th Birthday party.

A Beaver parent approached me about the mens toliet ceiling. He offered to sort it out... I handed the keys to him during the Easter break and came back to a new ceiling - complete with artex! A big thank you to Steve. He did the job at non cost the the hall or the Scout group - magic!

Pete sprayed the outside perimeter of the hall and car park using fluid supplied by Ivor R. That should sort the weeds out!

Mobile Library outside the Calley Memorial Hall

This evening saw the mobile library park in front of the Hall. Great stuff!

This really points to the hall being at the centre of the Chiseldon community.
