The club met on June 17, 12.30pm at the Rugby Club.

After an excellent lunch the speaker was Dennis Beasley who talked about behind the scenes at the Rose Theatre.

He told us the history of the Rose Theatre and he talked about all the administration and hard work that goes on before a show, both on stage and in the back ground.

He had been acting with the theatre for 30 years but has now retired.

The speaker next month on July 15 will be Sue Clegg who will be talking about finger prints for detection and intrigue.
