History
Society Outings
This increasing health of the Society also
manifested itself in the considerable support given to the annual
coach outing in the summer months. Each year arrangements were made
to visit a famous garden. This event also required a certain amount
of organisation. The start must not be too early, there must be a
convenient place en route for a coffee break in mid morning. The
garden to be visited must be within range of somewhere where lunch
could be taken. The return journey must permit a stop for afternoon
tea (if possible with scones and cream), and the return to the
village must not be too late. To fit all this to a famous and
worthwhile garden is not all that easy. All the same some wonderful
gardens have been visited and members have enjoyed some happy days.
