We hope that you have enjoyed our winter lecture season. The attendance has been good and the lectures have brought some very new topics to the attention of our members.

As you may know, we hold our winter meetings in the Church Hall on Long Street. Many of you will know the Hall, which is alongside the Catholic Church near the Pelican Crossing on Long Street. We have held five lectures, each commencing at 7.30pm. Members pay £2, Guests £4 to attend.

Subscriptions of £10 per person are due in October. We look forward to welcoming members to our forthcoming summer excursions.
