2ND ANNUAL LA RIVERBOAT DISCO - Sat 19 July
Tickets Now On Sale

Well its shiver me timbers and gold doubloons on a dead man's chest blah blah blah (insert your own seafaring cliché here…) as we take to the waves and chart unknown waters, well the Thames, on the 19 July with the 2nd Annual Loony Alba Riverboat Disco.

Once again, we've booked a luxury liner [sic] which will pick us up in central London (either Embankment or Temple Pier) and take us on a merry wee jaunt up and down the Thames.

There will be bar on the boat and there will be at least one free drink per guest. The really good news is that we've decided to cast adrift the DJ from last year's cruise and we'll be taking our own superstar DJ on board for the night, so the tunes will be a whole lot better than last time (or at least played at the right speed and only one time each)!

The tentative plan is to be picked up at 7pm and be arriving back at the pier at 11pm. We'll also be meeting up beforehand for pre-cruise drinks somewhere close to the departure point, details of this will follow nearer the time.

For anyone who missed last years event, you can see some pictures in the Photo Album.

Tickets for this are available at the bargain price of £10 for club members and £12.50 for non-members.

If you haven't renewed yet, please get a move on NOW! The good news is that there is no rise in the rate (for the second year running!), which remain at a bargainific £15.

That's a mere 5 London pints, and those of you who have attended LA events in 2007 will have probably enjoyed that much free booze anyway!

CHAIRMAN GIVES MANAGER FULL SUPPORT

In one of the most important political meetings since Yalta in 1945, which featured Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin, LA chairman Kevin Donnelly recently had a head to head with new Scotland manager George Burley. From the depths of his wine glass, the north London sage proffered the following wise words: "Keep it tight at the back and score goals at the front, innit."
