Ali

What could be better than Autumn in the Forest. Meet at 10.30am in the Honey Lane Plain car park just off junction 26 of the M25 (take A121 towards Loughton; after 500m (past Volunteer pub) turn right at crossroads (Woodbine pub opposite) into Forest Side, car park is immediately on left grid ref TQ 412 996, see map).

The walk will be about 7 miles. There are likely to be refreshments en route, but no pub lunch is guaranteed so please bring sandwiches.


Wednesday 18th October

Ghost Train

Cress

Join Cress for a night at the theatre as the Civic Theatre in Chelmsford presents Arnold Ridley’s classic drama Ghost Train. Events centre on a Cornish wayside railway station, where, despite warnings, six stranded passengers decide to spend the night in the waiting room. It is a decision they soon regret…

The Civic Theatre is in Fairfield Road, Chelmsford (Car park entrance from Coval Lane). The performance starts at 7.45pm.

£15 to Dave P by 4th October to book your ticket. (there'll be some money back if we get enough for a group discount).

Wednesday 25th October

Annual General Meeting

The star event of the year! Please make every effort to come to our AGM. We will be reviewing the year’s events and voting on the committee to take us into the next year. We are looking for nominations for new committee members, including chairman as after years of stirling service Jim is standing down.

This is a club run by its members, for its members and it is very important that as many of you as possible come and let us know what you think.

The meeting starts at 8:30pm, or when enough people have arrived.


Note: Unless otherwise stated, Wednesday events start at 8.30pm at the YMCA in Victoria Road, Chelmsford
