We were very lucky to have Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards take time out of his incredibly busy schedule touring the world giving talks to visit us.
What an entertaining evening we had; Eddie was an interesting and amusing speaker. He regaled us with stories of how he became an Olympic ski jumper and the adventures he had after his well earned fame. There was lots of laughter on the evening at Eddies' funny stories, I think he also made us a touch emotional at his stories of support he received from the British public and other European ski jump teams who helped Eddie in his pursuit of becoming a Olympic ski jumper. He also shared stories that demonstrated his amazing resilience,initiative and determination, respect to Eddie, he's a true inspiration. Thank you Eddie to coming for coming to talk to us.

Our members enjoyed a talk and demonstration from the Boots Beauty Team. Our Chair was given a given a mini facial and make over. Their sales pitch worked a treat seeing some of our members paying a visit to Boots to buy their products. thank you to Victoria and her team for an enjoyable evening.
Hiking Hurricanes went to Dewstow Hidden Gardens & Grottos. It was a very easy ambling stroll around the beautiful gardens and grottos. The group were inspired with some ideas for their gardens, and got to see dragonflies and bees enjoying the gardens too. They finished off their walk with lunch at their cafe. They also took lots of photos for the rest of the members to enjoy
