THE normal meeting place was not available due to school holidays so the August meeting was an evening outing instead.

Members were transported through several villages on a mini-mystery tour before arriving at Bridges Carvery Restaurant in Worcester, where everyone enjoyed a very pleasant and relaxed meal.

Betty Millward had some excellent photographs taken during the ramble along the canal from the Hopwood House Hotel.

The next meeting will be on September 10 at Woodfield Middle School when speaker Peter Preece gives a talk, Wildlife Photography Part II.

The competition will be a butterfly in any medium.
