PROSE & POETRY EVENING: Please also note in your diary that this year’s Prose & Poetry Evening will be in the Hall on Saturday, February 25. It’s always a popular and most enjoyable occasion. The organizers are giving us all plenty of advance notice, so that we can set the date aside (if possible) and also start looking out a suitable short passage or two to read (or offer to someone else to read for us).
