I was a few minutes late, so most people have already gone in. A little bird whispered into my ear, n=15. The exhibition was interesting. For me, the most fascinating thing in the exhibition was the Seahenge found on the Norfolk coast. Lots of information to digest, I found myself lost in details sometimes. Not withstanding that, still well worth a visit. Dinner at Carluccio’s proved to be a hit, 11 attended. A victim of the Pandemic, with fewer branches still standing, the consensus was that the standard was a slightly sub-par compared to the past, still most enjoyed the meal. Glad we are doing our bits to support a struggling enterprise. All enjoyed our first exhibition social outing after more than two years.
