As part of our regular Coffee, Cake and Conversation sessions on a Tuesday morning, this month we have an author talk.

Rosie Zanders, a former Cambridge Blue Badge Guide, will be talking about her book Cambridge per diem, a daily chronicle of Cambridge connections.

This book is a collection of Cambridge anniversaries, at least one for every day of the calendar year; it offers stories, reflections and insights into some of the remarkable people who have inhabited or passed through this remarkable city. The talk is tailormade for 1st April, focusing on today’s anniversaries.

Free to come and everyone is welcome.

The history of Duxford airfield from 1918 to its current position as a world ranking aircraft museum.

Bernard Olley (Guest Speaker)

The controversial 1988 C14 carbon dating results of The Turin Shroud spurred scientists, researchers and Christian believers into pursuing the truth of this remarkable burial cloth - a silent witness to a crucified man. Who is that man? ‘The Shroud That Came to Light’ seeks to present the evidence of exactly who he is.

Diane Drewery (Guest Speaker)

Animal history researcher and library assistant Eric Halinski will be giving a talk about the evolution and history of bats. Learn what they eat, how they live, and how they went from flying mice to Halloween icons, as well as which bats we can see at night here in Cambridgeshire.

Stay afterwards for a chat over a cuppa with other local residents.
