Outings 

We try to organise at least one day trip each year and several outings a year usually to local places of interest - for more pictures click on Gallery

We have 2 regular Coffee and Chat Events each month.  

On the last Saturday of the month we meet at Thatcham Garden Centre at 10.30am and after than there is plenty of opportunity to shop in the Garden Centre itself.  The date for this is in the Calendar on the Home page - but please check as occasionally the date does change to another Saturday

On the Wednesday immediately before our Monthly Meeting we meet at the Hidden Gem Café at Alice Bye Court.  This is usually the 2nd Wednesday of the month but always check the Calendar on the Home page!

This is the map to get to the Hidden Gem Café.  The red route is for driving and the blue route is the footpath if you are walking. The  entrance to the café is at the 'back' of the building with no access from the A4.  Click on the map to enlarge

Saturday Coffee Catch Up - what a great meet  up this is at Thatcham Garden Centre with lots of chat!!!

Archery - Saturday August 9th

Seven of us met at the Have A Go Archery at the Harwell Campus and had a fabulous 2 hours attempting to hit the bullseye! 

Many thanks to Maggs who organised this and Derek and Dean who were infinitely patient with us as we got to grips with our bows (and arrows)

The sun came out as we began our visit to Littlecote Historic House. This was a fascinating self guided tour of the old Elizabethan part of the house with haunted rooms and hidden insects within paintings which took an age for us to find!  We all enjoyed a reviving cup of tea and cake afterwards in the Hotel Restaurant
