Hi Travellers,

what a great start to the new year. We had 20 people at the meeting today. Firstly we heard from Diane and her interesting cruise on the Mississippi. She had us laughing at some of the antics and things that happened to her.

After a short break Jan told us of her trip to China. What a great experience she had. Starting off with getting left behind by her tour group to seeing the wonderful Terracotta Worriers.

                                                      What a great way to travel.

                                                                Amazing sky.

                                           What did you do Bill, to get into this predicament?

                                       After we will have our usual cuppa and chat with friends.

Hi Travellers, so very sorry it has taken me soo long to update the site. I've been busy.

On Monday 1st Dec we didn't have our usual meeting at the library, we decided to go to the Coffee Club for an Xmas lunch and final get together for the year. There were about 15 of us attending and enjoyed one anothers company. I printed some jokes which fell flat as two of them didn't have endings. Oh dear. I should have read through them first. As Ned Kelly said, "That's life".

Here are are a few shots of our group having fun.




Thanks every one who came to the get together.

I hope you all have a wonderful Xmas break away, keep safe until we meet again in 2015.Regards Sheila

 Hi Travellers,

 Mondays meeting was great with 24 people turning up to hear Mark from Trekabout talk about two of his wonderful trips. One was in Africa where he showed us sand dunes and wild animals. Then Mark talked about his trip to USA and the different canyons there.

                                        Some of Marks equipment, for his profession.
