Pub Nights If you are a prospective member then this is your chance to meet the Club.
See Pub Nights for upcoming venues.
Monday Night Jazz Steve Melvin plays with a band every Monday at the Three Stags Pub in Kennington Road,
nearest tube Lambeth North. This is an informal "jamming session" and a number of members have been meeting
on a Monday to support Steve, enjoy the atmosphere and to catch up with fellow club members. If you'd like
to attend, email Steve on steve.melvin@virgin.net or contact Kate Gerard, details below.

Fireworks Extravaganza: Sat 8th November The MMC’s annual fireworks party will be held at John Bradshaw’s house at 132 Thornlaw Road, West Norwood, SE27, from 7.30. Please note that fireworks will commence at 8.30 sharp! In order to avoid traumatising John and Catharine’s baby, please err on the side of visual appeal rather than sonic impact when choosing your fireworks. As with so many things, size matters. One big un is much better than lots of tiddlers. Please RSVP to John or Catharine.
