Venue: The New Inn Friday mornings from 10am to noon
Well, we reported in the last newsletter that the Hub had arranged a subsidised trip on
the MV Balmoral up the coast to London Bridge. However, due to various unforeseen
circumstances, our numbers dropped so we needed to cancel. Then unfortunately the
boat trip itself was cancelled due to the absolutely horrible weather earlier in the week
of 7 June which apparently resulted in the boat not being where it was scheduled to be.
Another trip, this time to see what happens to the various recycled materials that we
dispose of, was also cancelled, and it began to look like trips just weren’t meant to
happen.
That all changed though with a short notice self-drive visit to Eastbourne to see an
absolutely hilarious comedy at the Devonshire Park Theatre, so another one actually in
the bag! Not sure if it’s polite to mention that the main singer from the theatre
production was later unceremoniously chatted up during the post theatre dinner as
apparently he was ‘so nice, and he was so much younger than he looked on stage’ – but,
no names, no pack drill. Similar attendances will definitely be organised in future.
It seems a long time ago, but we should mention that Hub volunteers manned a stall
with several activities at the WCA Village Fete. That was a thoroughly enjoyable
afternoon, especially as the stall position in the field meant there was a good view of
the arena events and entertainments during the very few quieter moments.
No quizzes have been held over the past couple of months – partly because people have
tended to arrive later in the Friday morning session - which doesn’t leave enough time
to complete the various challenges. So this is just a reminder that you can arrive any
time between 10am and midday.
A couple of other potential trips are back on the cards and although it seems far too
early to be thinking of December, attendance at a Christmas pantomime is being
considered now so that the best seats may be booked. Yes, it really is.
