Saturday 8th May 2021

Good morning everyone,

I hope your week has been a good one. Amber and I have now been organising in-person sessions for nearly a month. It has been lovely seeing so many people, and the feedback that we are getting, is, that many of you are appreciating coming to a safe space and meeting old friends.

We are learning all the time, and are planning more sessions over the next few weeks, so watch this space! On Thursday 20th Chris will be doing a tour around Bloomsbury (more details below). Come the Summer, Chris is also planning a W&T of Borough Market as well as a special visit to Margate.

Nero: the man behind the myth. Through some 200 spectacular objects, from the imperial palace in Rome to the streets of Pompeii, follow the young emperor’s rise and fall and make up your own mind about Nero. Was he a young, inexperienced ruler trying his best in a divided society, or the merciless, matricidal megalomaniac history has painted him to be?
Please note that I have five tickets for this wonderful preview

Join us as Chris shares with you his knowledge of this wonderful area. This academic quarter of London is best known as the home of The Bloomsbury Group a remarkable circle of friends whose creative output during the interwar period was as prodigious as it was diverse.
