Our theme for our first meeting in August was “Flight of Fancy”.
We listened to the story of “Jack and the Witch’s Bellows”, one of many stories about the eponymous Jack.
Next we heard a story of a clever slave, “In a Box”.
After that, the true story of “The Invasion of the Caterpillars”, which took place in Clackmannanshire in 1937.
The fourth offering of the evening was an original poem written by our resident poet, “The Dream”.
Our penultimate tale was “The Firebird and the Wolf”, from Russia.
And last but not least, we were entertained by “The Fool of the World and the Flying Ship”.
We also enjoyed hearing about eventful air journeys that our members have experienced.
