Up and coming events include a visit to Gaugin at the Tate, a talk at Benson on The Music of Elgar, Calender Girls in Oxford (watching not taking part!!) and a visit to the Grand Lodge of Free Masonry in London - that should be fascinating! As always, we will be having our monthly scrabble evenings, our monthly local walks and when the winter evenings draw in (already??) we’ll be having our weekly Mah-Jong afternoons - just to keep the old grey cells active.
