North Wales, We Should Start A Society

[§tudz]

I live near chester and I dont think there are any societies or clubs all that close to us here, I am 8 miles from Chester just over the border in North Wales (deeside to be precise)

I have the means to hire a hall, either for free or a small cost. This would be in the deeside area.

So I am gathering numbers to see if this would be a via option and if people would travel, one of the options possibly available has the option of a bar as well.

So how many here would be interested and would come regularly?

The basis I am thinking is a social meetup with like minded people, meeting every other week or at least once a month. We could arrange to have guest speakers I have a few contacts which I might be able to talk into speaking, and anyone could speak, like a open mic session where you may come and talk about your latest breeding projects or DIY projects etcs.

And for the younger members dont worry, I wont let this become an old mans club no offence to the older generation, Im only 28 myself. So its open all ages and creeds.

Lets get some feedback and take it from there.
