SUMMARY:Wine Tasting
DESCRIPTION:  \nWe again consult our oenological guru Alan\, who I expect to be dazzling us with a variety of wines\, some of which will\, by way of a change and a challenge\, emerge from boxes.\nMake sure you’re present at the 8.30 kickoff so as not to miss any of the wines or nibbles.\nNote that £3 will be extracted from drinkers. If you can get wine cheaper . . . you probably shouldn’t!

SUMMARY:Croydon High Street\, Part 2 with Carole Roberts
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nHere’s local historian Carole on a previous visit. You’ll remember how enthusiastically we responded to her wonderfully researched and presented talks on the Davis Theatre and the Grand Theatre. Carole gave us a fascinating Part 1 of her Croydon High Street story last October. She has spent long hours in the Croydon archives digging up little-known facts\, and her research certainly paid off with a series of “Ooh\, I didn’t know that” moments. \nWe found out that\, long before a disgruntled elephant trashed the place (you had to be there)\, the High Street may have been a Roman road and was certainly a bridleway by the Midde Ages. We discovered the origin of “North End” and “South End” – which certainly caused confusion in the 19th century and still does for some. We viewed the first(?) map of Croydon\, from 1785 – in French\, by a Frenchman. We tracked the rise and fall of the many watering holes\, some of which continue to grace the area – the Ship has been there since 1835. \nNow Carole’s back with Part 2\, starting where Part 1 left off in 1901. \nA must see event for our Club! \n
