May Walk
The May Walk took our group from Cockwells along lanes and pathways up to Trencrom Hill. Although the day was misty, there were still great views whilst enjoying their picnic lunch. A different route back took the happy walkers back to Rosie’s house for a gorgeous, and well deserved, cream tea.
Photography Group
Our photography group, known as Snappers, felt very priviledged to be invited to member Rosie’s home to take photos of her lambs. The six young ones along with their mothers and elderly matriach Flower (shown above) were well behaved, though maybe a little bemused by all the attention.
A Talk by Tina from Cornish Lavender
We were delighted to welcome Tina Bessell from Cornish Lavender to The Murley Hall for our April Monthly meeting.

Sea Poems
Ella Walsworth-Bell and Abi Ottley two local sea swimming poets were delightful speakers at our March Meeting.

Pat G was the winner of the competition to write a poem with the verse below.
Meet and Eat in March
The location of the March Meeting of our Meet and Eat Lunch Group was moved due to the current closure of The White Hart. Instead, members were happy to return to The Welloe in Praa Sands, where they especially enjoyed freshly made pizzas and delicious fish chowder while overlooking the beach on a sunny March…
A Walk from Trengwainton
On rather a drizzly day our Walking Group took a route from Trengwainton, across the fields to Madron and finishing with a well deserved lunch at Tremenheere. The ‘cloutie trees’ pictured are at the ancient well, and chapel ruin at Madron, where people have tied rags to trees in hope of healing.
February Monthly Meeting
Our speaker for the February Monthly Meeting was Phil Angell. Phil gave an interesting and informative talk about occurrences behind the scenes of the Nuremberg Trials. Phil’s research came, in particular from two sources; he book Nuremberg Diary by Gustav Gilbert and records from the Robert H Jackson Center in Jamestown, New York. With photos…
Snappers on the beach
The Snappers February Meeting was held on Marazion Beach, with the rather appropriate theme for the month: Weather. Despite the stormy day it stayed mostly dry, with plenty of time to take photos of the rough sea and varied clouds, before a warming hot chocolate in Jordan’s Cafe.

Camera Club April
It was with great excitement that Camera Club met for their April meeting. They met, in fact, in two groups across two days to comply with the current regulations. The location was Marazion Marshes which proved a great spot for landscape photography, with excellent distant and close up pictures taken.
