MONDAY UPDATE

Good evening all,

I hope that you had a good weekend? Mine was lovely, though busy, as I was working. Yesterday I arranged for a group to attend the British Museum and a special exhibition; “Peru, a journey through time” which was very interesting and informative. Later in the afternoon I organised a herbal workshop which was a delight from beginning to end, especially the chestnut biscuits!

Social Dance at Dragon Hall

WEEKEND SOCIAL DANCE

Our next weekend social dance with “Vera the Diva” will take place on Saturday 4th December.

This month’s session will be a little longer (from 1- 3:30) with a shorter dance workshop (45 mins) – giving dancers more time to dance (as requested).

Note: For this session, you will need to book with ME first. Please do not use our website to pay beforehand, as there will be less spaces due to people being on the reserve list (they missed out last month)

Cost of dance (including refreshments) will be £3.50
