I have had a chat with the owner of the White Hart which is very close to the car park in Holsworthy. Yes, a room on a Saturday afternoon would be no problem. No charge for using the room. There is wifi available. If we need it there is a small charge, maximum Â5 for the day. And of course there are drinks available, including coffee. Snacks too. So does that sound like a better idea than the Hall? I guess that the Hall is more suitable for large groups, but not for small ones. Comments ???
