Public News : East Finchley Tour - May 19th 2010
Posted by Jason B. Standing Esq. on 2010/5/13 10:15:38 (146 reads)

Wednesday May 19th sees the return of our tour of East Finchley.

If you're in the area, or have a penchant for the Northern Line, why not come watch?!

The times & sites for the tour will be:

  • 7:45pm : The Windsor Castle (The Walks, N2 8DL)
  • 8:30pm : The Five Bells (165-167 East End Road)
  • 9:15pm : The White Lion (121 Great North Road)
(locations indicated on map below)

To find the Windsor Castle from East Finchley tube station, head North along East Finchley High Street, aka the A1000, and turn left along Leopold Road, then turn right down the alley into The Walks. It will take 5-10 minutes to walk from East Finchley station, depending on how fast you walk.

It'll be more fun than you can shake a stick at! (ho ho ho, etc.)

The rest of the season's calendar can be found here...

Public News : That's it for another year!

The Westminster Day of Dance has passed, and the sound of jingling bells ebbs out of the capital's streets for the time being.

The Westminster Morris Men wish to say a huge thankyou to all of our guests who joined us on Saturday for what was our biggest Day of Dance ever. We enjoyed your company and your dancing, and hope that you all had a splendid time.

And thanks also go to our army of friends, fans and supporters - whose dedication we truly value.

I suppose we'd better get cracking on putting together next year's event...
