What a fantastic time we had on Tuesday.
Almost 50 people turned up for our talk at our new venue!
The food from Rooty's was fantastic too!!
It was nice to see some old faces - and some new people too.
Our next meeting is a talk by vegan MP Kerry McCarthy.
Several members of our group have attended talks by Kerry over recent years and have commented that Kerry's talks were the best they had been too.
That's a lot to live up to - so come and find out!!!!!!!!!!!!
