Screening

Below is the program for the evening of Saturday July 20th, 2019.

Thank you in advance for all attending the AGM, and sticking around for the election during the Dinner Break.
Not that we think we need to bribe you to attend this week, or any such thing, this will be more of a reward. This week we will have two preview items, one before the Dinner Break, one after the Late Break. Due to a mistake, at the last JAFWA session I suggested that we would have the first episode of “Dr Stone”. However, we now know that it is a double-length episode so we can’t fit it in next week, it will have to be August. Hopefully our replacement preview item will be acceptable.
