Events report
The beach picnic on July 4 at Studland South Beach was well attended with 22 of us enjoying some good company, food and drinks together. We were so lucky with the weather as we had a beautiful sunny evening and it was calm and warm in the sheltered spot that had been well selected by Peter Parascandolo.
The same could not be said two months later for our tour and tasting at the Dorset Cider Farm on September 5. The rain poured down! Nevertheless, 21 of us braved the wet conditions for a tour of the orchards which were laden with apples ready to be picked and pressed. A guided tasting then followed with about eight different ciders sampled by the group.
The next event in the social calendar will be the annual Christmas lunch at the Purbeck Golf Club on December 11. An email was circulated in October with all of the details. Please book places, menu choices and make payment by the November 20 deadline.
