Pre-Panto Chinese Lunch and Aladdin Pantomime

 

Theatre masksThe Chinese Lunch before the Pantomime was delightful, and plenty of socialising and great food was had by all.

 

After the meal at Aroma in Stevenage Leisure Park, we made our way to the Gordon Craig Theatre.


The Pantomime was another Success. It was hilarious and everyone who attended thoroughly enjoyed themselves; and many were making sure we are going to do it again next year!

 

We attracted approximately 30 people which was an increase from last year and we’re hoping for another increase next year.

 

The President said “what a wonderful afternoon, already looking forward to the next one, never have I laughed so much”.



Coach and River Thames Trip to Kew

 

Kew GardensAn enjoyable day was had by all who joined us. The leisurely trip on the river was followed by the visit to Kew Gardens. The weather was warm and sunny,  A ‘hop on and off’ train was available which ‘took the strain’ out of visiting the more distant parts of the Garden.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Canal Trip and Cream Teas

 

On 7 June members joined us at Pitstone Wharf  the Grand Union Canal for a canal trip and cream tea.

 

Although the weather was not kind all the time it did not stop those who wanted to from walking the towpath for part of the trip.  We saw plenty of wild life close-up with Swan and Heron being the being the biggest.

 

The cream tea on the return journey rounded off an enjoyable afternoon.

 


Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

 

This was a’’ Forester Families only’ event, held on 18th July at Cineworld, Stevenage with the only cost to members being the £1.00 seat booking fee which was subsequently put to our Charity.

 

After all the hype it was pleasant to sit back and enjoy the movie. Number 5 in the HP series it continues the build up to the finale in ‘The Deadly Hallows’
