Making better use of Kirkton Village Hall

Since the summer we have been asking people what event or activity they would come to the Hall for. The 10 most popular suggestions from this mini survey, in order of popularity, were:-

1 Produce Co-Op (Bring/Swap/Buy local produce)
2 Tai Chi
3 Social Club
4 Quiz Night
5 Pilates
6 Badminton
7 Old Time Dancing
8 First Aid
9 Whist Drive
10 Coffee Shop


Some of these events are now already taking place, or are being arranged for the near future:
Social Club/Coffee morning – Being arranged for Thursday mornings in the New Year
Quiz Nights – Held throughout the year, but more could be arranged
Pilates – held on Mondays at noon Contact Annie on 01387 730421 or 07815 655190 for details
Badminton – held on Monday evening at 7.30pm. Contact Trevor on 01387 711344 for details
Old Time Dancing – held on Thursday evening at 7.30pm. Contact John Caskie on 01387 710975/07711573071.

To get the other events up and running we need enthusiastic volunteers to work together with the Hall Committee to plan and organise them.

Flooding & Floodline

http://www.sepa.org.uk/flooding.aspx

Floodline direct warning service is now live

The Floodline service has changed. We now have over 200 local Flood Warning areas across Scotland; which means that the Floodline quick dial codes have also changed. You can now sign up to receive free advance flood warning messages direct to your phone, so you'll know exactly when flooding has been forecast for your local area.
.......................................................................................
Due to the torrential rain of the past days many of us are affected by flooding.
Above is the link to SEPA flood line, flood warnings, updates and may other helpful services.
