NEXT MEETING - Tuesday 17th March from 12 noon

BOOKS that you may like to read before that date are:-

Brandy Row by Shelagh Mazey. The history of Portland, Dorset is determined by the sea. This book shows you life on the Isle of Portland between 1830 and 1851 - when smuggling was rife and the close knit community armed themselves against foreigners. Life and love was hard for young islanders.

The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson. On his hundredth birthday, as the celebrations are about to begin in the old people's home, Allan Karlsson swiftly decides that he wants nothing to do with the party. He climbs through his window and disappears - and so begins his unlikely journey.

Come and tell us what you think.
