FF closed this week, open following week, rug found
by Friday Folk 15 Aug '22

15 Aug '22

Hi, Please note that Friday Folk will be closed this week, 27 May, as many people will be at Chippenham. The club will be open again the following week, 3 June, when there will be a special Jubilee celebration with Andy King calling the dances. Last Saturday we had a very enjoyable dance at Samuel Ryder Academy. Lots of people were there having a good time. One item of lost property was left behind in the car park. It's a piece of carpet or rug measuring about 2m x 1m. If it's yours, please claim it quickly. Best wishes, Bob
