The Globetrotters Club invite you to attend our November meeting at the Friends Meeting House, Hop Gardens, St Martins Lane, London, UK. on Saturday, 12th December 1998. See our Website http://www.bigfoot.com/~globetrotters/meetings12.html for maps of the area and up to date details. Admission is GBP 2.00 for members and GBP 4.00 for non-members,(this pays for the hall and other expenses as we are a non-profit club ). The doors open at around 14:30 and the program starts at 15:00 with each talk lasting approximately 40 minutes. This is followed by an interval of about 30 minutes when refreshments are served. The interval is the active part of the program, with the opportunity to ask other visitors travel advice and share your experiences with other. Speaking this month : DAVID HAMILTON Aconcagua and Patagonia. David�s talk will cover three different mountain areas, Aconcagua [6959m] the largest peak in the Andes, the Chilean Lake District volcanoes and the world famous ice caps and rock towers of Patagonia PETER MANN Cycling around the Coast of Britain. After taking early retirement from his position as Curator of Road Transport at the Science Museum London, Peter, now a member, bought a cycle and travelled 5000 miles anticlockwise around the coastline of mainland Britain, completing his first adventure eight months later. Peter should just have returned from his second cycling adventure, a four-month trip from Valeritia Island, West Ireland to Sulina, by the Danube Delta on the Black Sea. After the meeting at about 17:30 the majority of members move on to the nearby "Marquis of Granby" a nearby pub (where we have the use of the upstairs room,) for a chat and a drink, while a group always finish the evening with a meal in a local restaurant. The Globetrotters Club, is a non-profit Club for independent travelers, staffed by volunteers since 1945. We publish a network directory (of our members and the hospitality and information they can offer) and a Bimonthly journal Globe (that again shares information and links members.)
