Phew! 2019 what a year we had at the IDSS Club, our weekly dances have gone from strength to strength, bowling although hit by the closure of our regular haunt the Namco Lanes has continued to flourish at the Superbowl in the Buttermarket Centre, Monday Social nights have been as popular as ever and were boosted by the re-introduction of Badminton, of course our monthly quiz nights (usually on the first Monday of the month) were popular throughout the year, plus we’ve had regular meal nights at various venues around town.  We did try a mid week afternoon tea meeting at one of our local superstores but perhaps folk were too busy to come along. One event that has always been a really fabulous night has been Ruby & Mel’s bi-monthly coffee night, if you haven’t been then look out for the next one, the details will be in the programme.  
 
Of course throughout last year we had a number of theme nights and we will be keeping this trend going through 2020, our first being at January’s Westbourne dance when the theme is 1960’s so ladies dig out those mini-skirts and gents find those Mod or Rocker outfits, it’ll be great fun. We do have one major night coming up this coming year that we are certain will be a huge hit with all of our members.  On 08 May it will be 75 years since the end of World War Two hostilities and we will be having our own V.E. Night celebrations on Saturday 09 May, so start giving some thought as to what you’ll wear that night, it would be great if we could all dress in 1940’s style, military uniforms, Army, Navy & Air Force, WAAF’s, Wren’s and maybe a few Land Girls will show up too, you can even come along in your de-mob suit. There will be flags to wave and with Knights Disco providing the music there will be plenty of Glen Miller, Jitterbugging and Vera Lynn with ‘We’ll meet again’ there’ll even be ‘Bluebirds over the white cliffs of Dover’. It is without doubt the best excuse for a party. There will be other theme nights through the year, plus a BBQ or two as well, so the best place to be on a Saturday night in 2020 is partying with the IDSS Club.
