Kurling

At a loose end on a Sunday afternoon, why not come along to St. John’s Church Hall, and join us for an enjoyable game of Kurling, between 3 and 5pm.

It isn’t too exerting; you just need to be able to wield a broom like pusher and to make it an easier game we have shortened the target length.

Please contact Susan Foss if you are interested.

Canasta

The Thursday afternoon sessions of Canasta have started well, but we still have room for more players. We play every week in the lounge at the Station Hotel from 2 – 4.30. There is no room charge, just a purchase of a drink. You don’t have to attend every week, but once you get into Canasta, I think you will want to.

Rummikub

Do you want to keep your brain sharp? Why not come along to the Station Hotel lounge on a Tuesday afternoon and have a game of Rummikub.

Rummikub is a game for 7 years and over and is simple to learn if you have never played. We start at 1pm and go home at a time of your choice. A drink at the bar is the only payment needed.

Table Tennis Group

The Table Tennis Group has been running now for over 2 years, (how time flies). It’s a great way of getting gentle exercise and having fun. It certainly helps with the hand eye co-ordination.

Sensible footwear should be worn, and please bring along liquid refreshment of your choice. All equipment is provided.

We meet at Hucknall Leisure Centre every Friday afternoon 2pm – 4pm, with the first session being free.

For further information contact Alan Hodkinson via email – ahodkinson@live.co.uk.

Long Walks

Our walk this month was to the Peak District on 2nd July and was led by Carol Green. We walked 7.96 miles over good paths; it was pleasant for walking as the weather behaved itself and was warm, without being uncomfortable.

It was a nice walk with stunning scenery; we walked through Stoney Middleton and Eyam, two beautiful old English villages. Eyam became famous by shutting itself off because of an outbreak of plague, 400 years ago. There are plaques outside each of the cottages telling who lived there at that time and what happened to them, which we took time to read. We finished off by having a cup of tea and cake at a pleasant tea shop in Eyam where we were able to sit outside as the Sun had shown itself.
