We’ll we can’t believe the summer is almost gone (and who knows if the UK heatwaves have ended!) but we are pleased to let you know about our autumn activities.
In response to feedback, we are scheduling our autumn evening events a little earlier where possible to 6.30pm directly following Evensong.
Coming up ….
Quiz Night : Friday 11th September
Show your support and join us for Malcolm Pounder’s debut evening as our Quiz Master. Malcolm is stepping into some big shoes and promises not to disappoint! There’s new rounds with sport and music too.
6.30 pm start in Priors’ Hall, wine on arrival. Interval for cheese, biscuits and refreshments and then continue part two with more questions. Prizes will be awarded to the team with the most points.
You don't need to bring a team, so single people and couples just turn up, find a table and make some new friends and let your competitive side out!
Open to members and their friends.
