Dance Til Dawn

Outing

This month, a group of us drove to Royston where we picked up a coach to take us into Milton Keynes.   On arrival, most of us gathered in a nearby restaurant to enjoy lunch before making our way over to the theatre to see Flavia  Cacace and Vincent Simone dance in their latest production.   The story is set in 1940s Los Angeles and as well as Flavia and Vincent’s fantastic dancing, including their renowned Argentinian Tango, they were also supported with other excellent dancers and good choreography.   Music was from a live band and had our feet tapping.  I think that we all felt we’d had a great afternoon.

May 2014 Lunch

Outing,

Our thanks go to Ruth, who together with Pat, kindly organised our May lunch which took place at The Dolphin, St Ives.  The restaurant has lovely views across the river which the members enjoyed as they tucked into a very good lunch.

Papworth Hospital Visit

Outing

On 21 October we enjoyed an extra outing to Papworth Hospital. We started by browsing the lovely gifts in the gift shop and made some early Christmas purchases before moving into the Heritage Centre where Becky Proctor, the Heritage Officer, showed us a very interesting British Council film from the 1940s about the Papworth Settlement. We ended the afternoon with a delicious tea of cucumber sandwiches and a choice of lovely cakes.
