Linnwood Historical Home

Twenty six of us went to Linnwood Historical home at Guilford on Thursday, 7 March. Dorothy and Helen were very passionate about the home and gardens.

It was a beautiful home. Most of the period furniture was on loan from the local community. The stained glass throughout the home was fantastic.

Fourteen of us finished off the day by having a yummy lunch at the Merrylands Bowling Club.

Thank you all for your positive feedback. It is much appreciated.

Drive yourself/car share outing

This is an iconic cruise just one hour from the centre of Sydney – delivering the mail to the isolated water-access-only residents of the magnificent Hawkesbury River on behalf of Australia Post (as well as other daily essentials like milk, papers, the odd bottle of rum).

This is a great trip. I am looking forward and hoping to see new members join us on the outing. Thirty seats are reserved at present on the boat. The cost includes morning tea and a Ploughman’s Lunch
This will be a car share day out or by public transport.
