Talks are on wide-ranging subjects with something for everyone.
The History group has been running under new leaders to replace Niddy, who is now hoping to move to Kings Lynn. In June we had a fascinating talk by Denise on the history of tiaras; trying on her samples caused much amusement!
In July we have a talk by Bridget Kerle, titled “Augustus: The First Roman Emperor”. This is a period of history we have not explored so we shall hope to see you there.
Please note there is no meeting in August due to holidays, but in September we will be hearing about the history of underwear (male and female!). October will see a talk by Tim Young entitled "Life (and death) in Nelson's Navy" and in November "The first Lord Fairhaven and the history of Anglesey Abbey" will be presented by Denise.
