A good number
of members old and new joined us at the Village Hall this month for a ‘cuppa’,
a slice of cake and a fascinating look at ‘Old Time Music Halls’. We watched some remarkably good-quality film
from the early twentieth century of artists such as Marie Lloyd, Dan Leno and
Wilson, Betty and Keppel, as well as some from later in the century who some of
us could recall (but only just!): Gracie Fields, Max Wall, Arthur Askey .. just
as entertaining today as they were fifty or sixty years ago!
Together with
quizzes and puzzles, refreshments and chatter, and a game of ‘Musical Bingo’,
the afternoon passed quickly as usual and left everyone looking forward to our
final cafe for 2015 which will be on Monday 7th December from 2pm at
Crantock Village Hall.
