1st Tuesday
Family Room, Conservative Club
Leader: Joyce McMurray
At 10:00
Before counting the stars have a look underfoot.
Daily it is forced home on the mind of the geologist that nothing, not even the wind that blows, is so unstable as the level of the crust of this Earth. — Charles Darwin.
We meet on the first Tuesday of the month from 10-12am in the Family Room of the Conservative Club, Long Street. The room fee is £1.00 which includes Tea or Coffee and a biscuit.
Unfortunately we have not yet been able to restart our meetings.
Our weekly Newsletter keeps us up with Geological events, and contains contributions by members of their forays into Local and World Geology.
We hope that we can once more look forward to restarting in the New Year.
Our Field Trip to Criccieth, North Wales, in September 2021 is still to anticipate.
