The Engine Shed

⊆ January 19th by | ˜ No Comments »

Just a quick one in the midst of Christmas madness, to let you know that Independent Options, in Hazel Grove, who took over the Engine Shed Train Club in October, are planning to run the club on Saturdays 2-4pm, starting on 7th January 2012.

Please do try to get there if you can, as no-one actually went at all to the October/November sessions, so they are hoping that changing the day will make a difference!

Nicky, who will be running the session, would really appreciate knowing how many people to expect so if you could drop her a quick line if you intend to go, that’d be great. Email is info@independentoptions.org.uk, or phone is 0161 456 6502. They are at 67 Chester Road, Hazel Grove SK7 5PE, right next to the train station in H Grove.

Thanks very much,
Best wishes,
Liz
