Presents

  • The first talk is about South Africa :” Cycling th Garden Route” by Madeleine Anderson
  • The second talk is about Lisbon: “Europe’s cheapest capital” by John Sunter

So it looks to be an interesting afternoon again!

We have booked a different pub for after the meeting to have a drink and chat, the last pub was so crowded and we had no space to sit so we are trying The Golden Eagle, it is in Castle street, nr 18 and just behind the museum. Very easy when you walk through the shop at the back.

We have booked 2 large tables and they can turn the music down a bit for us so we can hear each other. Also they do real ale there, they have only openend up the end of last year and it looks lovely inside. So lets hope this is better for all of us!
