Keith says:
1) As you know, I’m arranging an outdoor COPSE visit to the Cryer Arts Studio In Carshalton High Street on Tuesday12th April for their regular “folk night” (2nd Tuesday of each month) which starts at 7.30pm.
I’ve been going there for a few months now and have been impressed by not only the “proper” stage, tables in front (which can be removed for folk/barn dancing), the staggered rear seating, the welcoming bar (open from 4pm + serving a variety of beers, wines + hot food.
2) Also, I’m intending to lead a short three mile walk from Wandle Park tram stop about 3.30pm to Carshalton Ponds(via the River Wandle, Beddington Park + The Grove) aiming to get to the venue by about 5.30pm for a meal + drinks.
Feel free to join us for the walk, the folk night or both.

Alternatively, take a chance and turn up on the day.
