We will be organising a trip to the Eco Village on Thursday 13th June for Pizza. The evening will commence at approx 6.15 pm and pizza’s will be provided by The Wood Oven. There will also be an opportunity to purchase hot and cold drinks, alchoholic drinks and cake.

Pizza’s will need to be pre-ordered and paid for in advance and a menu will be emailed to all members separately within the next few days. There will also be a pre order sheet at Wednesday’s meeting.

Seating will be provided on a first come first served basis both inside and outside so please wear appropriate clothing should you be sitting outside.

Ready to strut your stuff with some Line Dancing on Wednesday night?? Who doesn’t love a bit of Dolly Parton?

We look forward to welcoming Yvonne Anderson for a fun filled evening learning some line dancing moves.

It would be great to see everyone dressed in country attire so drag out those checked shirts, denim, boots and stetsons!

Yee Haa!

A reminder that we have a visit to the Plant Man in Braybrooke on this lovely sunny evening where they will be demonstrating the planting of a spring planter. Tea and coffee will be provided. Gates open at 6pm for a mooch around the garden centre and then the demonstration will commence at 6.30pm.

We look forward to seeing you later.

The Walking club had a lovely sunny walk around Medbourne on Sunday followed by a cheeky pit stop at a local cafe. Fiona shared with the walkers her newly found foraging skills which they all enjoyed and will now look at their gardens with new eyes!

Many thanks to Fiona for organising.

We had a lovely evening in March listening to Bill Haley and hearing all about his time working in the Royal Navy on the Royal Yacht Britannia. A really informative and interesting talk.

Our next meeting is Wednesday 24th April and we look forward to welcoming Colin Cohen who will be talking to us about the history of Social Housing.

Colin also volunteers for the Market Harborough Food bank and so we are asking for donations for that on the evening also. An email has been sent with the food stuffs they currently need so please do check your inbox.

We look forward to seeing you all next Wednesday

A polite reminder that annual fees are due by the end of March. This year they are £48. Payment can be made by BACS and we ask that you put the reference as ANNUAL FEES so it is easy to reconcile the account. Many thanks in advance.

What a great evening we had at our ‘Cocktail Making Masterclass’ social event at Louisa’s Bar last week.

Ian guided us through the making of a Pornstar Martini and a Long Bramble – both of which were delicious! We enjoyed some nibbles, and an evening with lots of chatting and laughter.

Our next monthly get together is Wednesday 28th February where we are looking forward to welcoming Phil Jesson. Phil is a presenter on HFM but also works passionately as a volunteer presenter and facilitator for UNSEEN – the UK’s leading  charity fighting modern slavery today. Phil will be sharing some information on Modern Slavery with us all.
