MOVIE NIGHT: What We Did on our Holiday (starring Billy Connolly) –
An hilarious journey through an unforgettable family holiday as a couple attempts to keep their impending divorce secret from their extended family. Doug and Abi and their three kids travel to the Scottish Highlands for Doug’s father Gordie’s birthday party where its soon clear that when it comes to keeping their divorce under wraps their children are their biggest liability. From nine year old Lottie’s notebook to keep track of the lies so she remembers which one to tell, to four year old Jess’s perverse attachment to a brick named Norman, for their parents a week has never seemed such a long time. But it’s middle child Mickey and his Granddad’s shared passion for Vikings which gives rise to the most far reaching and unexpected consequences. When a day at the beach turns to tragedy, the children take matters into their own hands. ‘You’ll laugh, you’ll cry and you’ll probably want to book a holiday to the Highlands one day soon’. Saturday 25th September 5.15pm in the Parish Lounge. BYO takeaway tea. Koha appreciated. Contact Irene 332 7306 for more information.
The Parish Garden Party scheduled for Saturday 16th October has been postponed.
A new Sunday Roster has been prepared and will be emailed out on Wednesday.
