Tickets £4, please at the door. John Maguire is currently writing a book on the subject. Which I didn't know when I asked him, after the meeting in January, if he knew of of anyone who could do a talk on Samhain. No prizes for guessing who l asked to do the talk.
Given the success of the 2025 quiz (thanks Louise) one of the winning team has agreed to set the questions this year. Thanks Ros!
There has been some discussion, amongst the walk leaders, about what to do as it is New Year's Day. It's a subject they intend to return to. It is unlikely to be the agreed date. There is also likely to be further discussion about whether a drier alternative should be found.
The speaker will be Chris Jones. His subject will be Liverpool's Cholera epidemic of 1849 and Dr Hawthorne's “infallible” cure. Helen volunteered to organise the speaker for this meeting. Many thanks to her for doing so.
Peter Walker he is an accredited White badge Guide at the Palm house. The title of his talk is an interesting and busy time Kitty Marion & the attempt to blow up the Palm House.
Louise and Ros have arranged for Delyth Owen to give this talk after she led a tour when the lunch group had a hot pot meal there.
A couple of irons in the fire
This is hoped to be a film based one.
