and,,, Action!

Just towards the end of last week Haddens put fencing up around the building and at last it feels we are on our way.  So much has happened over the last few weeks but none of it was 'visible'.  I was at Logierait Market on Saturday and so many folk came up to say how delighted they were to see building activity around the cinema.

What else has been happening?  Our team has expanded, and a big welcome to Angela Hanvey, our wonderful new Finance Adminsitrator, started this week.  She will be working with us to ensure that all the grant funds are administered in good time - paying our bills and reporting as needed to funders. 

And of course we had a visit from the Screen Machine, a foretaste of things to come.  One of the things I love about going to the Screen Machine is that you are bound to see someone you know in the audience; there is always great chat before the film starts, a real buzz to the place - whether catching up or anticipating the film, or discussing the film seen the day before - the chatter is loud and lively.

We hope to have three or four more visits of the magic lorry before The Birks Cinema opens next year - so keep looking out for the posters.
