The Garden Party at the Beehive originally arranged for July 17th was postponed due to the weather until September 4th. However, it is now apparent that very few of the people who usually help to operate the event are able to be present.
So reluctantly the event is now being cancelled. September 4th is now certain to be a lovely sunny day.
Our next meeting will be on Wednesday 14th September in the Village Hall starting at 7.30pm.
This month’s speaker is Nick Lockett on Photography.
