Happy Halloween

Thank you to everyone who came along to the Halloween Quiz on Thursday night. It seemed to be a really popular event and it looked like people had a lot of fun. So many people made the effort to dress up - they looked fab and I've added some photos here for you to enjoy. I think I have some new candidates for the next photo competition.....! The rest of the photos will be up on the new website later in the week.

Enjoy....

Extra special congratulations to Jean and her team for the decorating of the hall and to everyone who helped in any way from donating prizes, helping with clearing up and of course, those that turned up!

So, watch out for anything that goes bump in the night and if you spot anything tonight, remember who to call - GHOSTBUSTERS!!!

Yours 'spookily',

Our new website!

We have a brand, shiny and new website for you all to admire and visit and it is all thanks to the hard work of Ian! Follow the link www.herefordgandssociety.org.uk and see the beautiful transformation that has taken place. You can see photos from past shows, check out what's in the news and look at the Society calendar so you know where you need to be and when. This blog will stay here and the Facebook page will also be ongoing but make sure you book mark the website so you can visit again and again and keep up to date with the world of Hereford Gilbert and Sullivan Operatic Society.

Yours in great excitement,
'Dame' Hannah

And the winner is....

Many apologies for the late announcement of the winner of our second Caption Competition - sadly work has got in my way recently!

So, without further ado; the winner of September's competition is Dr Ian Roper with "Gordon - I know carrots help you see in the dark but there's no way this parsnip will improve your hearing!"

Second place goes to Mrs Alison Auty with "Sex bomb, sex bomb, you're my sex bomb!" and Mr John Hyde comes in third with "You'll have to speak much louder, this thing is full of ice-cream!"

Chocolatey prizes will be available at Tuesday's rehearsal.

So, the next picture to test your thinking skills is this one: (I'm running out of comedy pics - I might have to bring my camera to rehearsals... :-)

Any ideas for a witty caption, either add them as a comment or email herefordgands@gmail.com and I'll upload them.

You have until the end of October, so good luck,

'Dame' Hannah
