Dear All

In November we continued to look at old Kent when Andy Linklater gave a talk on the Kingdom of Kent.


The December meeting, next Monday 8th at 7.30pm, is a light-hearted Christmas social. The society is providing the range of drinks and nibbles. It would be appreciated if you can, do please bring a small plate of something in the range of seasonal finger food, or something similar, to help the evening go. We look forward to seeing you all and do please bring your partner or a friend to join in.


In January we will meet on Monday 12th. The speaker has yet to be confirmed and I will let you know the details in the January note.

For your information there is an exhibition entitled “What Remains” at The Beaney in Canterbury which you may find interesting. Whilst advances in science continue to uncover more, should human remains be displayed in museums? Does scientific value outweigh ethical concerns? It’s a complex issue requiring careful thought. You are invited to explore the evidence and share your views. Human remains will be displayed in a separate section of the exhibition.


The Atherton Heritage Centre at Barham Village Hall is open every Wednesday morning 10 ’til noon. However, it will be closed on Wednesday 24th and 31st. December and will reopen on Wednesday 7th. January.

If you know of anyone would like to be kept in touch with the society’s activities please notify David Wood (dw4746@yahoo.co.uk / 01227 832430) and they will be put on the monthly circulation list.


As always if you do not wish to continue to receive these monthly notes just return this e-mail with your name and I will delete you from the circulation list and acknowledge your request. You can re-join the list at any time.


Thanks

David Wood
