SUMMARY:Globe Theatre + London Walk\, second attempt: The Tempest
DESCRIPTION:The Show\, and Tickets\nDeja vu all over again. \nHaving organised the trip to the Globe on 8th July (which lots of people said they enjoyed) and then failed to get there myself because of Covid\, I’m determined to make it this year. So I’m proposing the same arrangement as before\, this time to see The Tempest. \n \nAgain\, I’m heading for the cheapo £5 standing ticket. Seats in the galleries are also available at £25 upwards. \nI’ve booked tickets for 9th September for 11 people\, of whom 9 are standing with us peasants. \nSome tickets are still available\, so if you want to join us you’re very welcome but please make your own booking at https://basket.shakespearesglobe.com/23881/23895. \nMore details of this show are here. \n\nThe Itinerary\nI’ll repeat the arrangements I failed to implement last time\, which were: \nI’ll be getting the train from East Croydon to Farringdon\, taking a leisurely\, easy and largely off-road 3.5 mile stroll through some interesting parts of the City to the South Bank\, gaining sustenance at Wagamama in Clink Street\, then on to The Globe. \nPlease feel free to join me at East Croydon\, Farringdon\, Wagamama or The Globe itself. Here’s my schedule: \n\n\n\n14.51\nDirect train from East Croydon (Platform 2) to Farringdon\, arriving 15.16 \nTrains are frequent these days – fallback is the 15.01\, arriving 15.26\n\n\n15.30\nSet off walking from Farringdon\n\n\n17.30ish \nWagamama Clink Street. \nThey don’t take bookings\, but they do squeeze people in!\n\n\n19:00\nAt The Globe\, ready for 19.30 performance\n\n\nLater\nPossible beers\, followed by train back to Croydon ad lib – Blackfriars is nearby and has fast trains to East Croydon.

SUMMARY:Conan Doyle talk by Bernard Winchester
DESCRIPTION:“COPSE. Come at once if convenient. If inconvenient\, come all the same.”†\nThis Tuesday Club Night we have a special presentation from Bernard Winchester\, whom you may have seen occasionally at the club. He is a member of the Norwood Society and an experienced and enlightening speaker. \nCome along to hear him on “Conan Doyle – the South Norwood Years”.  Doyle lived in Tennison Road\, South Norwood\, from 1891 to 1894.  This illustrated talk looks\, with some humour\, at his life\, works and surroundings during this period\, and concludes that it was also a crucial time in the career of Sherlock Holmes. \n\n\n\n\nWe expect this special event to be popular\, so please arrive promptly for an 8.30 start.\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n† As Holmes (almost) said in The Creeping Man

SUMMARY:Travel Treasures - Members' Recommendations
DESCRIPTION:Some advance notice\, as your preparation and involvement is key to the success of the evening. \nCOPSErs are\, of course\, renowned globaltrotters\, and here’s your chance to share your vast experience with the rest of us. \n \nNext Tuesday club Night (20th September) is an evening of Travel Treasures. Melanie will coordinate your contributions\, but it’s essential that you get them to her in advance so she can put them together. \nIn her own words: \nNext week’s evening is designed for audience participation. \nI’d like people to stand up and talk about their super secret or amazingly fabulous travel recommendations\, whether that is an experience\, a hotel\, a restaurant\, a tourist attraction or something else. \nI’m looking for something you would definitely recommend onwards . \nFor ease of presentation on the evening\, my suggestion is that you send me the website link if there is one plus a couple of pictures (if you have them)  and a couple of words and I’ll put them together in one pdf file\, ready to be presented on the evening. \nMy ideas is that the individual will stand up on the night and tell us in 5 minutes or so a little bit about their recommendation. \nAt the end of the evening we should all have some fabulous ideas of places to visit or experiences to try out. \nI’m happy for these suggestions to be in London or anywhere else in the world. \nSurprise us – and make us all yearn to visit. \nWe NEED them passed on to me in advance so that the evening is a success. \n\nI’m expecting big support for Melanie’s initiative!
