This week the Parish Club Lounge was decorated and painted. The games
room lighting has been renewed and the area repainted and the parish
hall has also had a lick of paint and the chairs have been replaced
with new ones. These renewals ensure that the centre continues to provide
a high standard of decor and comfort for members and their visitors.
All this and we haven't put up the prices! good ambience, the best of
company and cheap beer! The works of art in the lounge area is provided
from a selection of pupil's work by St Mary's School and also from St
Richard's students. I am very proud of the work that is displayed, they
generate a focus for comment and this helps to create an atmosphere
of culture and style that is totally unique. If you haven't visited
in a while do drop in and let us know what you think. Fr Steve
