17 Jul 09 - 11:54 AM (#2682242) Subject: Events/Sessions in Northumbria (UK) From: manitas_at_work Liz (LTS), Limpit and are are sojourning near Haltwhistle in the week commencing 1st August. Are there any nearby events or sessions? There is a session/singaround in Catton but I'm not sure there will be anything on in that week. We'll be whizzing about the countryside during the day so we probably won't be up to travelling far in the evenings. |

The Hall is worth seeing too, and if you're NT members, it is of course free. Chesters Walled Herb Garden is in its last year open to the public - not musical but worth an afternoon wander. Haltwhistle is a long way from anywhere (part of its charm, really) Paws |
