EXCURSIONS
Throughout the year there will be excursions to stately homes, gardens, country towns, parks and other places of interest. Information will be on the notice board three months before each visit.
All trips must be paid for in advance. If you book by phone, then the cost must be mailed within four days to secure your place. A waiting list is kept in case of cancellations, and if there are spaces, friends or family may come too.
The 2008-2009 programme is:
Oct 17: The Royal Landscape in autumn plus Windsor Castle.
Oct 22: “Carousel” at Woking with Lesley Garrett. Shoppers may use the coach.
Nov 1: London 1888.

On Registration Day, because it is so busy bookings will only be taken up to December. After Registration Day you may book for anything on the programme.
Holiday details will follow later – watch the notice board.
