I think an 8 o clock start is far from realistic too, means someone has to be there to open up super early which wouldnt be fair. It also means people who have to travel would need to be on the road at stupid 'o' clock to get there.
10 til 3 seems like a good time as its not too early of a start and an early finish which means there is still time to go shopping with the missus if needs be...
5 til 9 is an okay time but it means late finishes on a Sunday night which will put people of as its the first day of the working week and little nippers cant come as its too late for them....
Is there other time options available for the hall ? I thought the only slot was ten til three which makes this discussion pretty futile.....
Tim why dont you just tell your missus that on a sunday you will mostly be racing your toy cars, she will just have to deal with it
