The next Op Soc social function is our Annual Dinner Dance, to be held this year at Peppone's at Bowenhurst Golf Club (just off the Farnham to Odiham road). It is to be held on Saturday 12th May, 7.30 pm for 8.00 pm, and the menu looks to be particularly appetising with a strong Italian influence. The cost is £32 each, which is £1 less than last year, and will include an introductory drink to boot!! Vanessa (Higgins, that is) is taking names, so please let either her or a member of the social committee know if you would like to come. Ron |

REVISED DATE 10th FEB!....I am afraid that there has had to be a change of plan for the Op Soc line dancing social event. Fleet football club double booked our evening and, as a result, we have had to delay it by one week to Saturday 10 February. I hope that you are still able to come, although I know that it now intrudes on half term and some people are off skiing. It should be a good evening - a line dancing teacher has been especially engaged, and appropriate food will be laid on at the interval to keep your energy levels up. The cost is £8 and Roger is taking names (otherwise let any member of the social committee know). Folks Happy New Year one and all! The next Op Soc Social function will be a Line Dancing evening, to be held once again at Fleet football club. We have an experienced 'caller' coming along to put us through our paces, so it should be an ideal opportunity to shed some of those extra pounds that have amazingly appeared over the last few days. The date is Saturday, 10 February, and further details will follow shortly. We hope to see you there. Ron |

A reminder of the Op Soc Christmas 'bash' at Charlotte and Ron's house on Saturday 16 December at 8.00 pm. Dress up posh if you like, but don't be deterred if you don't want to. There will be lots of interesting eats and drinks, and it should be a great opportunity to get into the festive spirit, all for the princely sum of a fiver. Charlotte and Ron's house is situated at 7 Badger Way, Ewshot, which you can't really miss off the top of Beacon Hill going from Crookham cross roads in the direction of Farnham. Please let Ron know if you would like to come, so we can gauge numbers. A reminder also that the Christmas raffle will be held at around 9.30 pm on Tuesday 19 December, following a short rehearsal, at our rehearsal room at holy Trinity Church, Fleet. It's an ideal opportunity to swap Christmas cards, and share a glass of wine and a mince pie. We look forward to seeing you there also. |

The OPSOC Beer & Skittles event was a great success, and very well attended. "Team Spades" won the main event, with our illustrious director Sue Sampson taking the individual award in the "killer" competition (in rather dubious circumstances). |
