Re: Liphook Social Club - helen (30th Sep 2011 - 08:20:54) I have seen this band in action and they are very good, well worth a visit so come on and support them.

Re: Liphook Social Club - David McGrath (30th Sep 2011 - 16:33:33) Hi Yes we have 'May contain nuts' at the club in Headley Road, Liphook on Saturday night. If you wish to see them please come along and make yourself known at door where you can be signed in at the committees discretion, if you have not visited us before come along you may well be pleasantly surprised, a warm welcome awaits you.

Re: Liphook Social Club - dee (1st Oct 2011 - 10:05:26) Hi I have also seen May contain Nuts, played a variety of music, will definitely be going to see them again tonight. May even see you there dee

Re: Liphook Social Club - helen (2nd Oct 2011 - 00:04:00) Well a bloody good night at the club the band May Contain Nuts were excellent shame no one came in to listen to them.

Re: Liphook Social Club - hon sec (2nd Oct 2011 - 13:17:37) Hi all, yes it was a good night in the liphook social club, the band were very professional and played for all ages including modern pop and rock.The problem is that we are just not getting the message across to the local population, in that on their doorstep in the centre of the village there is a very good social club that offers very reasonably priced ales, lagers and good wines as well as a very good program of family entertainment on saturday nights.We especially welcome families. The social club is there for the whole village to use with membership on special offer. Join now or before christmas and we will include 2012 membership! If you would like to come and see what we are all about or join please contact the club on 01428722711 (there is an answerphone service)

Re: Liphook Social Club - dave mcgrath (6th Oct 2011 - 08:59:21) All you boppers!

Re: Liphook Social Club - helen (8th Oct 2011 - 15:20:57) Cant help prices of the beer. Who is unfriendly Staff or Customers, i dont have a problem in there.

Re: Liphook Social Club - Jean Storer-Turner (15th Oct 2011 - 09:55:03) Don't forget we have a Live Comedy Vocalist on at Liphook Club tonight - all welcome and we are friendly!!!!!

Re: Liphook Social Club - steve wilson (19th Oct 2011 - 19:29:50) sorry to say you may be frindly behind the bar !!! but some of the others 2 faced people on the committee think they own the club (not all but some) they are there to help run it for each and every member and not act like they are gods!!!!

Re: Liphook Social Club - claire (20th Oct 2011 - 06:42:45) I am really sorry that the club seems to struggle. Maybe if you got people accessing the building for other reasons (like hiring out the hall during the day time for activities etc) it may raise its profile. Have you considered afternoon activities such as 'senior years ' activities (the grey pound is still very strong!) or activities which attract families/ mums n babes? There is also a lack of activities for young people with learning disabilities. An afternoon tea dance sounds really romantic! .... I think i would have to learn to dance and give up work so i could attend! A sunday afternoon 'dads and sons pool competition' with teams paying a small fee to be donated to a charity , as it is charitable the schools may let you send out flyers in the school book bag system. Also consider a senior years 'happy hour' and drop flyers to the peak centre and local residential homes, offer to have 'reminiscence type music playing. With a lot of these things you don't need to do the organising , i recognise that the committee need to work, but you can let others who may want venues know of its availability. Once you have people through the door for whatever reason you have the marketing opportunity to let them see what is going on. On talkback someone is planning a christmas market type event .... could they not use your facility ?..... you could do mulled wine and provide festive music do you want me on the committee!! :) :) :)

Re: Liphook Social Club - dave mcgrath (20th Oct 2011 - 08:06:53) Thank you Claire, so nice to get POSITIVE feedback from villagers, too many people talk the talk but are not prepared to walk the walk. In spite of certain peoples views i can assure you that we are a very friendly membership and are community spirited, ask the WI or the ua3 club who come in and play skittles etc, also until recently a local playgroup used our facilities, some people are not capable of realising what work goes into running a village social club and keeping it financially viable. There are always those that don't actually use the place but seem to delight in having a dig at our committee. Anyway rant over, i would welcome your thoughts Claire as you seem to want to help out. As stated before the club and it's facilities are here for EVERYONE in the village and surrounding areas and although we may not always get it right we try to get this message across (check out our advert in the carnival section of the messenger) please contact me for a chat about joining us. ring 01428722711 or ask the editor for my private number. My mobile is 07770224866. (or get my email address from the ed) thankyou Hon sec.

Re: Liphook Social Club - annehall (20th Oct 2011 - 13:37:25) The Liphook Day Centre at Peak have had a skittles evening at the Liphook Social Club and were made very welcolme . The Clients and Families have another evening booked for the 18th November and are looking forward to it. Thank you Dave and Staff for your help when we have these events.

Re: Liphook Social Club - David McGrath (21st Oct 2011 - 17:58:50) I can assure you that as always you will receive a friendly welcome, anything to help our fellow organisations.

Re: Liphook Social Club - dave mcgrath (25th Oct 2011 - 18:41:46) Good luck to Karen and the team for this weekends carnival and thanks for all of your hard work, we at the liphook social club support you.It is good that Liphook villagers support each other, remember everyone, you will be sure of a warm welcome at the club, entertainment is Tim Masters superb vocalist, come along and see us at your village club.

Re: Liphook Social Club - J (26th Oct 2011 - 21:00:00) i was there at the weekend and cant complain about staff or prices!

Re: Liphook Social Club - steve.wilson (26th Oct 2011 - 22:54:27) the prices are very high for a club more than a pub !!!! justlook over the road at the achor !!!!! ok let see at passfield just had a pint of bitter shandy £1.85 so how much is it in liphook club ????

Re: Liphook Social Club - den (27th Oct 2011 - 10:36:09) Hi You do seem to have a lot to say about liphook and passfield clubs. I presume that you are a member of both clubs and use them frequently as you seem to have a lot of information about them both. I think people should work together in a village community and leave positive feedback. Cheers Den

Re: Liphook Social Club - steve wilson (29th Oct 2011 - 08:17:08) I am not a member of liphook or passfield i play darts for a other team !! what to see all clubs pubs do well but what i see at liphook when money gets tight they just put the prices up then out price them selfs !!! the club was alway 40/50p cheaper than any pubs now the beer is the same or more !!! cheap beer gets more people in . go and look at the prices at the anchor and yours make that differance

Re: Liphook Social Club - claire (29th Oct 2011 - 08:57:53) Do people still have to be \'signed in\' like the old days of clubs or can anyone just walk in and use the facilities ( I know you need to be a member to vote on clubby things )?

Re: Liphook Social Club - dave mcgrath (29th Oct 2011 - 11:21:14) Hi Claire, yes you do have to be signed in (max 6 times) or become a member, but tonight we are opening to the public (entry subject to to committees discretion) so people can take a look for themselves, if you are about tonight please drop in and ask to see me and i can give you more info families welcome.

Re: Liphook Social Club - Tony (29th Oct 2011 - 12:49:58) You can only be signed in if you are the bona fide guest of a member whio must accept responsibilty for your actions whilst in the venue. In addition you cannot purchase drinks unless you ar a member.

Re: Liphook Social Club - Shaun Wright (29th Oct 2011 - 14:59:49) Tonight the Club is open to none members to enjoy this family Club. There is FREE ENTERTAINMENT FOR YOU TO ENJOY and none members can legally purchase drinks from the bar. Please come along and enjoy the warm and welcoming club. Chairman Of The Club

Re: Liphook Social Club - dave mcgrath (2nd Nov 2011 - 09:03:52) Just thought i'd say that carnival night in the club was a great success! We had many new faces coming through the door and everyone had a great time! Even had some people join as members! Don't forget everyone is welcome at the club. Also well done to all of the floats, we gave it a miss this year but we will be putting a float in next year, any volunteers to help us?
