Winter Programme 2000
See the News pages for information about
lectures during the Foot&Mouth epidemic.
This is the winter programme for 2000/2001. The target audience for
each lecture is a general guideline, so please come along if you're
interested in something particular.
To help us plan, it would be useful if you could indicate which
lectures interest you, on the list in the Clubhouse or by email or
phone to the CFI. However, if you forget to book, you're still welcome
to come along.
