Having spoken to several BHS members who visited Caen I gather the week-end was a huge success and another European trip next year, possibly staying in Ostend, is being considered - well done Pauline - I think you may have started something that has the potential of becoming an annual event and unique to BHS!!
I was sorry to have missed the trip due to a ‘previous engagement’ - five days with my ‘birthday wife’ in Paris - I think our ferries passed each other somewhere between Dover and Calais on 26 July.

Many thanks to those of you who have already let me know you will/will not be visiting Rothwell on 19 August. To remind you that the guided tour arranged by Rothwell History Society starts from the Market House on the Market Square in Rothwell at 7.15pm. If you haven’t already done so please let me know by 12 August if you will/will not be taking part.
