On No....A page is missing

As you may or may not have noticed our meetings page is missing.

Don't panic normal service will be resumed soon.

However

we are also planning a Thursday afternoon meeting in Launceston town center. We have a venue in mind but are yet to finalise details. (watch this space)

The idea being that Thursday afternoon in a cafe will potentially interest a completely different set of people who may not want to go out in the evening to a pub.

So while we are sorting things out it's meetings as usual at the Pint & Post.

No meeting

Hi, very quick last minute post..
There is no meeting this Tuesday 8th due to work commitments etc..

Back to normal next week....

New club??

It's been a funny old couple of weeks.

We have had a new player come along for the last three weeks. Great I hear you cry, fresh members..

Well that didn't quite work out.

This week he came along to announce that he wouldn't be coming very often from now on as he had been chatting with some friends and they were planning on starting a club local to them.

So bad news that he won't be a regular. But at the same time I can completely understand this as his trip to us every Tuesday was roughly a 50 mile round trip.

On the plus side, good news that there is going to be another club in the south west  as well as somewhere else for me to find a game.

I'm hoping that when they are up and running a

Lansongammon. v. ??

match can be arranged.



I think he is planning on getting a mention on the UKBGF site club list as well as BIBA so keep an eye on their site for a nice new club in the area.

Xmas Menu

For anyone local to Launceston this is the Pint & Post Christmas menu.

Go on, treat yourself or someone else...You know you want to...
