Hallmark April 1981. Bob Barton reporting. The Club is on an upbeat at the moment. Interminable plans to build a second court of our own are hardening up. We hope to build most of it ourselves over the next 12 months. Advice, here, or labour, would earn not a lot, except much gratitude, and a few drinks.

We have had a rush of blood to the head and joined a men's league. So a few new, or even not so new, men would be handy. Then there's a veritable social whirl of extra-mural activities. Watch for the monster jumble sale next month. (Well what did you expect, a May Ball?)

We have fixed an LTA coach for the juniors this year. It may be we can get him to take some of us in hand as well, if enough want it. All secured for an inflation-beating basic £10 a year, with concessions for families, which means your on key and virtually unlimited access to the court (and use of another).

Go on - gives us a try. I'm on 5824; Match Secretary on 3037, and secretary Diane Bradley on 4512. Or just turn up at our corner of the sports field any Wednesday evening about 7pm if it is fine. You never know, you may enjoy yourself.
