23 members attended and had an enjoyable evening at the November meeting. Members were entertained by a DVD ( Picnic in Siluria) produced by the geological section of the Woolhope Naturalists Field Club. The film was a re-enactment of an 1850’s field visit by Sir Roderick Murchison to a site near Aymestrey in Herefordshire. The scene was set by a short talk given by Robert Williams who was part of the re-enactment in the guise of Sir Charles Lyell.

The next indoor meeting will be held on Wednesday 21st January.This will be the AGM followed by a talk by Dr Geoff Steel entitled: “ The Tyrone Ophiolite; ancient ocean floor on land in Northern Ireland.”
