Tuesday Club announces Christmas Bingo update

The Tuesday Club Committee would like to inform all members that on Tuesday 8 December there will be a short meeting before the Christmas Bingo. This will be to talk about the future of the Tuesday Club. They hope as many members as possible will attend.

After the Christmas Bingo, there will be a Chippy Birthday Celebration for Maureen Millington and Barry Miller. This is the delayed planned celebration from September. The food will be coming from the King’s Plaice on Lord Street.

This event is for Tuesday Club members only.

Please note the £5 offer shown

Ten-pin bowling champion

At the Tuesday Club today (20 October) we had Virtual Bowling, which has become a popular activity. Several members took part to see how many strikes they could get and also get the highest score possible.

Tony won the competition with 216 points! Congratulations on your bowling skills!

Chippy Birthday Celebration date change

The Tuesday Club special birthday celebration for Maureen Millington and Barry Miller will now be taking place on 22 September instead of 8 September. This means there will be a swap of activities so Games will now take place on 8 September. The Tuesday Club programme has been updated to show this change in dates.

Norma Ashton

Updated on 7 July – added photo

One of our former members Norma Ashton has recently passed away. Norma enjoyed going to the Tuesday Club each week and always had a great time there.

Norma’s funeral is taking place at 11am on Monday, 6 July, in the chapel at Southport Funeral Care on Shakespeare Street. It is a small chapel but if any of our present members wish to attend, please let Tony know so he can tell Clare, Norma’s daughter. They are going to the Richmond on Scarisbrick New Road afterwards.

We send our condolences to Clare, her family and friends during this sad time.

Pancakes and Irish bingo set for Tuesday 24 February

Due to the club being closed on Tuesday 17 February because of repairs to the floor by the back door, there will be a change of programme for Tuesday 24 February.

We will be having pancakes (£1 per person), brought forward from week before, and a game of Irish bingo (also £1 per person).
