I have booked the Arthur Mourant Room at the Societe for a bat group meeting on the Wed 30^th Sept at 7:30

For those who do not know the building it is the Pier Rd entrance to the Museum and the room is on the third floor of the building on the right as you go through the gate from Pier Road. I’m not sure but I think you need to go down a flight of steps in the courtyard before entering the building. There is plenty of parking in Pier Rd car park as well as on the side of the road directly outside the Societe building on Pier Rd.

I was intending to put this down as an event in the appropriate section of our new web facilities but I’m not sure how to do this. Guess second option should have been on the forum which I didn’t manage either.

Ani is getting together an agenda so any additions – post them here or send her by email.
