The meetings begin with an informal get-together in the Bar at about 11.15am where old friends can have refreshment and a chat. Then follows a two course Buffet Lunch at about 12.15pm in the main Dining Hall, with Tea and Coffee to follow.

After Lunch the Secretary will have arranged some light entertainment such as a choir, or instrumentalists of some kind. Sometimes there is an arranged talk by a local expert on some topical subject.The meeting tends to be completed around 3pm or so.  

During these meetings we have a raffle (free) and a sale of second hand books..
The Buffet Lunch inc. Raffle is £15 per person payable in advance or on the day.
Occasionally a coach trip is arranged to some popular venue.  
These are in addition to the regular meetings.
Members can reserve places on a mini-bus service for collection and return.
This is free to Bus Pass passengers when seats are available. 
The transport should be reserved when the monthly meeting notice is sent out.

Please come and join us. Our branch is thriving and is a great way for all of us elderly Masons, our wives and all the ladies of our former Brethren to maintain continuity and friendship all through the year.
