Sunday Elevenses—Fortnightly
Join Marion Sipser for Sunday elevenses for coffee and chat, at various local venues. Please contact the joint groups organisers for more information.
Topical Tipples (aka Booze Cruise)
Leader: Liz Alcock
An seasonal autumn group which meets when the sloes (fruit of the blackthorn bush) are black & ripe. Having collected and frozen your sloes, you bring them along with other items to make your sloe gin.
We also make Limoncello with vodka, using unwaxed lemons.
This year (2023) we will meet on Wednesday 1 November. Contact Liz Alcock.
Wine Appreciation
Leader: Malcolm Brahams, with support from Valerie Cowan
Do you enjoy wine and want to learn more about it in a relaxed and informal way? Then join our Wine Appreciation group and improve your knowledge.
Valerie Cowan, a member of the Association of Wine Educators who has led this group since its inception, is taking a well-earned rest but still keeping a watchful eye. Individual members take turns in choosing a selection of wines (usually three each of white and red) and introducing them. After tasting the wine, we discuss what we liked or disliked about each one. We drink wine because we like it; not because we’re wine snobs.
