-URGENT NOTICE-
Due to an absolutely horrid parking situation on the surrounding streets near the ceili, and an imminent bout of horrid weather, and an already low expected turnout (due to the date being so late in the month, very many people are away), the executive have decided to cancel the ceili tonight.
Please let anyone know that may not get this, and let them know. We will also try to get an email out to the membership asap.
Please have a safe weekend! (stay in and listen to some Irish music!)

Stay home, stay safe!
