May events
We had a particularly varied month for social events in May. Starting with a well attended conservation walk at Warleigh Point, there was then a lively book club where we discussed Robin Ince’s recent book “I’m a Joke and so are You”, and a Sunday Brunch at the Seco Lounge, where despite the post Plymouth Half Marathon crowds, we managed to find ourselves a table outside. Finally, Jessica led us on a walk around Plympton on the Sunday of the bank holiday weekend, introducing us to its fascinating history.
