Another great Connect activity yesterday, Brunch Dates and Mill Gates. We all enjoyed brunch at JJs at The Dugdale followed by a private guided tour at Queen Street Mill, the oldest steam powered mill in the world. Now a museum all the looms and equipment are original from 1894. Just time in their cafe for coffee and cake before they closed the gate behind us!
Don't forget to book your place for the June activity, lots to enjoy.

What fabulous way to celebrate St. George's Day with our Connect family. We picked such a lovely sunny day and so well looked after at the Foxfields Country Hotel. The day started with trimming up the private dining room a bit and activities followed a delicious lunch. We had 5 lucky prize winners in Kath, Peter K, Peter E, Sheila and John. The day ended with our traditional and patriotic sing along.
Another personal added excitement to the day is the arrival of daughter and aptly named little grandson George. Fly safely.
A popular date as also the first date, 1973 with future husband John. Thank you all.
The next events for May and June are now published. They will be great events, reserve your place!

What a fantastic Castle Walls and Country Tables activity we had today for April. We were so blessed with the weather which allowed us magnificent clear views from the bailey at Clitheroe Castle. Following welcome refreshments, our guided tour of the outdoor area then inside the Stewards House museum was so informative and so much has happened here over the last thousand years. What great staff too, so knowledgeable and friendly. Sometimes we don't appreciate what is so close to home!
A lovely lunch was enjoyed by all at the Coffee Shop@Brockhall, I try to introduce some hidden away gems that may be a new experience for some.

Still time to book our next APRIL activities. The first one on Tuesday 7th is Castle Walls and Country Tables. You may think you've visited Clitheroe Castle before have you participated in the guided indoor and outdoor tour of the castle museum? Chairs in rooms for a breather! There is some parking at the top of the drive at the door of the museum. Lunch afterwards in a tucked away Ribble Valley gem.
The 2nd one is our fabulous celebration of St. George's Day at the prestigious Foxfields County Hotel on Thursday 23rd. (Minimum numbers for this to go ahead)

What a great time we had on our last activity, Arts and History at the Manor House. I think it was one of the best we've had. Sadly only a few attended as perhaps they had visited Towneley Hall before. But we were treated to a full renew after its recent closure. The private guided tour and all guides were so friendly and knowledgeable.
One of the very valuable artworks depicting Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, was once admired by Prince Charles on a visit. He said he was familiar with it but remarked, we have a copy of it in Buckingham Palace but you have the original!

What a great occasion it was celebrating Valentine's Day at our Friends and Lovers Connect event. We had a fabulous lunch followed by a Valentine's quiz. What a treat to hold it in the private dining room at the beautiful Mitton Hall. Some photos including a few taken from the PowerPoint running through of our valentines.
