Many thanks for your support and suggestions, dear friends. Normally we must leave our clubhouse by 1st July. Time is very short now. I have heard that there is some tension in the Mayor's party which is also mine. I wrote a letter to the Mayor's secretary and asked him to send me a written confirmation of the decision that has been taken. It's always possible that too many clubs protested against the new rules and that they changed their minds. Imagine.Dave Watterson wrote:Good suggestion from Michael ...
A firm may not be able to let you have a permanent room of your own but it MIGHT let you have a room when needed and the use of a locked cupboard for equipment.

However, Freddy, the secretary of our club, who attended the last meetings in the town hall said that he felt hopeless and that the alderman who is in charge of cultural affairs seemed to be very severe.
So, we'll see. Tomorrow (Wednesday) I'm leaving for Guernsey and the smaller islands Herm and Sark. Perhaps you already know that Peter Rouillard and I are making the film "Guernsey, I Love You", but not for the Guernsey Festival of course. Then I'll be back home for about 5 days. After that I will make a new trip to Alderney, the island which is not so far from Cherbourg. Freddy, the secretary, is in Austria at the moment. We already thought of "parking" our club in the nearest filmclub until we have found a new room in our own community. Your suggestions are very useful, dear friends.
