Four weeks to go until session number two at the 'new' club then. First one was brilliant and packed-out; looks like this will be too. Mr Manship guesting this time out and he usually throws a couple of curve balls so looking forward to that. Us usual suspects filling in the gaps.

We spent a morning checking and bashing the brains out of our revitalised sound system at the weekend - not that we're excited, obsessive or anything - and, without wanting to jinx the blighter, it sounded absolutely banging so that's good news.

More to follow in due course.

See you down there

Yep, four weeks until our next installment :thumbup:

The new gear sounded absolutely amazing when we tested it last week, seriously can't wait. Here's details for a few hotels for anyone wanting to stay over. We're a stones throw from Chester so why not make a lovely day / weekend of it! 

Gateway to Wales Hotel 0.9 miles from venue

The Coach House 1.4 miles from venue 

Village Hotel, Chester St Davids 1.8 miles from venue 

Holiday Inn, A55 Chester West 2.9 miles from venue

Northop Hall Country House Hotel 3 miles from venue

Anyone still need directions to the old grumpy venue. :rofl:

Joan . Phil and the gang.  Just double checked work planner and I'm definitely playing out.  Yippee nearly cancelled holiday because it clashed with your opening night but the threat of death off Lou changed my mind. So this is my opening night.  Bring it on.

Cheers Bob and Steve, great that you can make it. You'll love the venue, proper old school, perfect for Grumpy. 

We always welcome record dealers but as there's no longer an orangery, if you could please let us know if you'll be bringing anything more than a small box we'll get you set up :thumbsup:

A little over two weeks to go then, can't wait :thumbup:

Back off my hols and really looking forward to Saturday week. Mr Manship's up for it too it seems so looking good.

For anyone thinking of giving it a whirl for the first time there's no free CDs, gym, spa or tai chi facilities I'm afraid, plus youre not gonna cop for a night load of the same records you'll hear everywhere else either. 

So, to avoid confusion and disappointment, all you'll get for your six quid is a dark, hot n sweaty room (old skool I think the kidz'd call it), seven hours of proper records, a quality sound system, a good dance floor and (hopefully) a room full of like minded people who think it's worth travelling from all over for.

Oh aye, there's also a slightly sinister mechanical cat which spins while 'singing' Dana's all kinds of everything. Bargain!

A slightly sinister cat, sounds like a lost episode of The Twilight Zone (let's hear it for The Astors) what ever next a female Doctor Who !

Right then, only a week to go and I'm chomping at the bit. Heading down from Perthshire with Haydn and Alice in tow (who themselves are making the trek from Aberdeen). 

So who else is coming?

 

Tell you what Phil, if you can throw some toilets with in built water feature, I think you may have created Utopia:lol:

Gutted you can't make it Chalks.

Get well soon mate ( It'll be due to the fact that parts of your anatomy other that your right forearm copped for direct sunlight :lol:)

No dates confirmed as yet. We're onto it though; might squeeze one in before Christmas, will see how it goes. Really depends on calendar, work commitments etc.

Will be more in 2018 for sure so hope to see you. Watch this space. 

Cheers
