Discussion took place re social events for the Winter. It was decided to have a 70s / 80s disco, probably in February, in place of the ceilidh and to have a ceilidh for St. Andrew's night in 2009. This will give enough time to find an alternative ceilidh band. Liz knows of a ceilidh band and will find out the price.
