NOTICEBOARD

SOCIAL EVENING AT WHITTINGTON
Saturday 23rd October 2010
an evening of Black Country humour with "DANDY"

at Whittington Village Hall
Langton Crescent (off Main Street) Whittington

Husband and wife team Alan and Glynnis Briscoe, better known as the Black Country comedy and vocal duo Dandy, have delighted audiences in the Midlands for many years. Their unique brand of contemporary Black Country humour has made them a very popular act. Their great strength lies in their original approach to comedy. Using jokes, stories, observations and personal experience, they create a warm, happy atmosphere, adapting the act to suit the audience. They find humour in the everyday things we all do, the mundane and the plain silly and people immediately relate to their stories. You meet them as strangers and leave them as friends.

Start Time: 7.15 for 7.30pm

RECYCLING FOR CASH

What do you do with your old mobile phone handset when you get an upgrade? A recycling company will pay up to Ł10 for them (possibly more).
It is estimated there are on average 2 redundant mobile phones lying in homes across the country. If we could gather 2000 this year it could be worth at least Ł10,000 to the Trust.

The Waterway Recovery Group collects used stamps and printer ink cartridges to be recycled for cash.

Any items you have can be handed in to the L&H stand at any of the shows where we are present - see the Diary Page

Will you help us? Have a search and see what you can find. Ask friends and family too!

CAN WE HAVE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS?

We would like to update our membership details to include email addresses.
This would mean we could keep members informed of events and hot news items without having to wait up to three months for the next edition of Cut Both Ways.
