HODs weekend

trisher thanks very much for that link. I've bookmarked the page. There's lots of interesting stuff going on in our area, including a tour of a building I grew up knowing, but haven't been inside since I was a child. It used to be a museum, but then reverted to being offices for the parks department. It has a wonderful walled garden which they are also opening up that weekend. ?

Enjoy Greyduster hope you have a great time. I do think more people need to know about it. So many fascinating places.

Thanks, trisher. I'll need to persuade someone to take me, as I still can't drive.
Most near me are not on busroutes.

Anyone near Oswestry, there are lots of different sites and activities taking place. I'll be washing archaeological finds in the museum from a dig on the castle mound, and DH is running an amateur radio station in the museum - so come and say hello

So good to hear from someone else who is involved Badenkate I'm in Newcastle where the City guides are organising a few things, including a walk around the city, opening the Guildhall and All Saints (an elliptical church usually closed to the public and sadly neglected). One year I am going to go off for this weekend somewhere else and see some of the other exciting options!
