Our first visit to this new venue (having been regulars at the old one) and we loved it. The venue itself isn’t initially that easy to find; despite being on a main road, it’s pitch black and easy to miss. Once there, plenty of parking. As you walk through the doors, the decks are immediately to the right, facing a decent-sized dance floor, with seating and the bar to the back. Drinks prices are great - less than £30 for 7 drinks. There was a great crowd there, who hit the floor earlier than usual and stayed there all night. Great sets from the residents Ken and Jeff, while Shane Cheesebrough entertained us all with a delightful smorgasbord of varying styles. We even got to reacquaint ourselves with one of the old crowd from the early 80s and it turns out that she lives down the road from us all, so the car could be getting fuller soon on our regular jaunts out. This is a cracking club and well worth checking out. Special thanks to Jeff for putting this on x All the best The Waddesdon Contingent

Delighted to have this fantastic club back on the calendar. The Waddesdon Contingent will be there en masse (all 3 of us ). All other dates are in the diary, too.

A big thank you to everyone involved in putting this one. We had a great time and look forward to the next one.

Thanks for a great evening last night, Gents. Our first visit, won’t be our last. Not the first time I’ve seen a certain DJ go down on one knee making a proposal - just the first time I’ve seen him do it outside the gents toilets .

Gutted that we cannot make this. Hope you all have a brilliant night and can't wait to see you all again in the New Year. All our love. The Waddesdon Contingent x -
Hope it went well last night, Gents, and that everyone enjoyed themselves. Really sorry we couldn’t make it. All our love. The Waddesdon Contingent

Apologies everyone, it was £2K that was paid for this record earlier this year.
-
I can confirm that a copy was bought for £3k earlier this year (and, no, not by myself).

Thank you to all concerned for a great night. Two of us were in town for a stag do and came along for our weekly NS fix, expecting to stay for half an hour max. Over two hours later we left, doing a great impersonation of hot, sweaty messes. Loved the choice of music, adored the vibe (great to see so many people who don’t appear to be obvious NS devotees enjoying themselves), just wish the dance floor was a bit more forgiving; having spent a couple of hours dancing in trainers, my knees are killing me! You have a lovely Club their, Folks, and all the best for the future.

Many thanks to everyone who turned up last night and battled the atrocious local road conditions. Hope you enjoyed the great sets from Kev Such and Derek Smiley; always a treat to see these two in action. Lovely to see so many of you up on the floor. -
Rugby Soul Club 2 Roomed Allniter

Brilliant evening. Greg Belson's set in the main hall will live long in my memory. -

Just seen Happy Feet’s comment above mine. I am sure you felt the same with BWFC’s win at Wembley this season. You can only win what’s put in front of you and when you do…… .

Trust me, no snobbery at our end. They reckon we had something like 30k of us in Prague (and you couldn’t walk anywhere without seeing a West Ham fan; although I can’t vouch for the club offering us sex with a midget - had to guide my very drunk, married mate away from that one). If you follow a team and they win a cup, I do not believe that the sheer joy you feel is any greater or less based on the “quality” of the competition. I could not have felt any more elation when Bowen’s goal went in if it had been in the Champions League Final. If any of you are at Rugby next week and you see a very happy Cockney singing songs about cats and being champions of Europe, feel free to come over and say hello (or shut the f —- up!).

Apologies for the appalling grammar.
-
Hope it isn't but fear you are right. I'm will be out there and have the match ticket in hand. If we win, the past 38 years of following them home and away are vindicated. If we lose.....

Popped in for a couple of hours, as we were in the area and have heard great things about this event (a very good friend has played here recently). Lovely venue, great prices at the bar and the warmest welcome from the hostess, Helen, we could have hoped for. A friendly crowd with no pretence - there to have a good time and a dance (although the floor could do with being bigger; I believe there are plans for this). Musically, nothing that will surprise you - just good, solid sounds that get you up. No obvious OVO policy, so probably not one for the purists, but a great night out for anyone who enjoys the classics. The Waddesdon Contingent will be back again, hopefully for longer next time.

I’ll keep this short n sweet. This is the best NS club in the area. If you live locally and haven’t been yet, get yer arses in gear.

Thank you for another superb evening. This Club just keeps going from strength to strength. Looking forward to seeing you next month (especially with Rob Smith playing). All our love from The Waddesdon Contingent.

Thanks for a great night last night. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening and loved the chat at the end. Look forward to seeing you all soon. Love n hugs from The Waddesdon Contingent.

I’ve reviewed this club before and mentioned that it can be a “hit and miss”, depending on how obscure a couple of the DJs decide to go. Last night was a huge hit. All 4 lads played superb, varied sets that catered for all tastes. We danced to the 60s, we sat and enjoyed the 70s and (on one occasion) 80s. We even had the pleasure of watching half a dozen people line dancing. I kid you not - all that was missing was the stetsons! The crowd here are great fun and love a dance. It’s not an overtly “northern” crowd, they just get up and do there own thing, creating a unique vibe in the local area. The lads running it are very knowledgeable and good company. Overall, well-worth a check out.

Dave, you have a pm

Fantastic night that will live long in the memory. So glad to have had the opportunity to see the 6Ts Mafia live and even better than I had expected. Big thank you to all concerned.
-
Really enjoyed Friday night and was pleasantly surprised by Ross’ set, which included a decent smattering of 60s. This is a great club and well worth checking out if you are in the vicinity.

Popped along for a couple of hours as we were in the area and ended up staying longer than intended / ended up late where we were meant to be. First time at this venue and initial reaction was what a great setting they have here - bar at the back, stage at the front, chairs around the superb dance floor. Just how we like it. Being Southerners, we were wondering if the music would differ greatly from our local clubs. The opening set was a thoroughly enjoyable selection of lesser known records. The 2nd set was pure classic oldies and had the dance floor buzzing from the word go. (And a word to the locals here - you’ve got some great dancers at this Club. Really enjoyed watching some of the steps). We had to leave early into the 3rd set, which we were enjoying, and it was a pity we could not stay longer. We live over 100 miles from this wonderful venue. Testimony to how good a time we had is that we plan to return, hopefully with some of our crowd.
