Social Nights March, April, May

The first Wick social of the year is this month on Saturday 29th March beginning at 1930hrs. Yes it's Poker Night. A relatively quiet affair at which AJ trousered the pot last year, this year its time to put your poker face on, get practicing on Facebook and work out how to avoid looking like Ricky Ponting plumb in front and waiting for the finger when your bluff is called.

Poker will, of course, be the focus of the evening. Your entry fee of £20 will buy you a donation to club funds, food*, beer^ and contribution to the prize pot. Places will be available at a series of tables, the eventual winners at which will join the "Wick Table of Champions" or other such title when we've thought it up to duel for the main prize of the night.

This in no way cliched image will give you no idea whatsoever how the evening is set to pan out.

Your social committee would like you to reserve a number of other dates to be entertained and entertaining.

Hibby and the Eskimos will make a triumphant return to The Wick on Saturday April 12th from 1930hrs. Although none of you will have need of a girlfriend once the season starts, there will be real, live, outsiders at this evening as the H&TheEs fanbase (Ethel and Mavis Scoggins of Surbiton) will be invited. Only kidding btw they are legendary... This promises to be a massive night in Wick history so start warming up your vocal cords and current girlfriend to attend this. There is likely to be dancing of the modern variety at this evening too. Ticket prices will be in the region of £5 to go to the club as a donation by the Eskimos for the club providing rehearsal space.

We will have our first First League Game Party (inc Barbecue - fill your boots) on May 10th. This is to welcome new members to the club and to celebrate the fact that we will have put out three league teams that day! Entertainments etc will be communicated at a later date but you can bet your bottom dollar, Euro or £ that it will include Karaoke, cocktails (bring those girlfriends picked up on April 12th and any that you have managed to hold onto into May).

Wickman is so excited, that he just can't hide it, he's about to lose control and he thinks that, on balance, he just might like it...
