Title: R S Summer Science exhibition - Free - 1-7 July
Post by: Roy on Apr 18, 2019, 10:16:27
Roy and I go to this every year, Delphine joined us last year. In case anyone else interested check out the web site below. Let us know if you would like to come as an OAS group. Roy and I tend to go mid week as quieter. But a late night (and no kids) on Tuesday 2nd July if you work in London.

Good news Delphine. Would Ian be interested too do you think? We will have to fix on a date, Roy and I were thinking Tuesday 2nd during the day.  Is that date free for you?  Other possibility for us is Wednesday 3rd  -our wedding anniversary! The Glades outreach is Friday5th and Sat 6th.

Anyone else out there fancy joining us : )  No need to book ahead, a free exhibition all week.

Cheers, Sue.

Hi Sue

We are just off to Croatia to sail around the Islands on a small boat (32 passengers, 6 crew).  I will  ask Ian if he is interested in coming to the Science Exhibition and let you know when we get back.  We get back next Tuesday

Cheers Delphine.

Hi Sue

Sorry I meant to reply to you before this!!  Yes Ian would like to come.  What day are you going?  I have just re-read your post and see you suggest Tuesday 2nd July.  That is OK for us.
