Organ recital by Dr Emma Gibbins, Ridgewell Parish Church

We do hope that members will be able to join us on the afternoon Sunday 17th August for what promises to be an enjoyable programme of social activities organised by EOA Vice-Chairman & Treasurer Michaela Cottee, beginning with a recital at 3pm by the new EOA President Dr Emma Gibbins at St Lawrence Church in Ridgewell, North Essex, followed by refreshments and an opportunity to socialise (cost £10, including refreshments afterwards). We will then drive the short distance to Clare in Suffolk, where there will be an opportunity to play the organ in the church of St Peter & St Paul – an instrument which world-renowned organist Wayne Marshall OBE has recently said he wants to play (no charge but donations welcome)! We will then walk the very short distance to the (excellent) Mughal Knight restaurant on the High Street for a curry and drinks at 6.15pm. We hope that you will be able to join the President and other members of the Committee for a convivial meal. Please note that diners are expected to pay for their own meals, and that this restaurant does not have an alcohol licence, so you should bring your own alcoholic drink(s) – there is no corkage charge, and the restaurant will provide a corkscrew, glasses, ice, etc. Soft drinks are available to purchase from the restaurant, so please do not bring your own soft drinks. You are welcome to join us for one, two or all three of these activities. To help with planning and catering, please RSVP to EOA Vice-Chairman & Treasurer Michaela Cottee using MichaelaCotteeEOA@gmail.com.
