But First, and I
know it's a bit late, but I couldn't resist this
twitter gem from Jimmy Carr
"I love it
when the clocks go forward. It's the BST!"

SuperDome
update
As you will be aware we have
had some issues with installation of our SuperDome, and undoubtedly
this has led to some frustration amongst our members. A few of our
neighours had lodged an objection, and without going into detail,
approval has now been granted for the next three
years. We volunteered to implement a suitable planting
scheme on the side of the SuperDome which borders onto Windsor
Avenue and
this work will start shortly. Special thanks to David Gotto, George Hewitt and Todd's
architects who worked extremely hard to get us through the process.

Junior Squads
update
Simon McFarland and
Przemek continue to do fantastic work with the Junior
Squads. We now have approximately 180 juniors who are
attending the progamme, despite the dip due to the extreme weather
conditions over December and part of January. There is now a Junior
Club afternoon on Sundays, which runs between 14:00 -
17:00 and is open to all Junior members - only costs a
quid! If you haven't been down before then come
on down on Sunday, the weather promises to
be great!

Club Website
Just a quick note to let you
know that the new Windsor website (currently being developed by
those fine people at Pierce
Communications) is progressing nicely - we are expecting that it
will be live by Friday of next week. Whoops, just checked, that's
April Fools Day, maybe not Friday then. . . The new site will have
features such as links to Facebook, Flickr, YouTube,
an online MatchMaker, and a total rebrand. Can't give too much
away, but, it's looking good!
