Weekly Bulletin Issue 119. September 11th 2014
WW2 Normandy Discovery Break We’ve just launched a three day break to Normandy in March. Following on from our trip to the WW1 Battlefields in February we are delighted that we will be joined once again by Simon Footer, our tour guide, for this special trip. 2014 marked the 70th anniversary of D-Day and the Battle of Normandy in WW2, yet there is still lots to see and learn in this delightful corner of France.

Swing Into Christmas Accommodation Bookings are now pouring in for the Christmas Dinner Dance. We have an allocation of bedrooms ‘held’ at the Burlington but they won’t last long. Snooze and you lose! Click HERE to book.
Spice Bake Off Hindley Bakers, in the centre of historic Lichfield, runs various baking courses just for Spice and we always receive great feedback. Having seen and tasted the results I agree. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to learn the skills and techniques of Artisan Bread Making. Click HERE .

Richard’s Bailing Out One of the delights of working in the Spice office is making people’s dreams come true and watching their confidence grow. Occasionally we get to live a few of our own dreams as well. That’s why Richard is currently off with a lucky group of lovely Spicer's who are rafting the mighty Colorado River through the length of the Grand Canyon. It's a wonderful, exhilarating, wilderness experience and one that I was fortunate to lead back in 2009 - so I know what treats he has in store. I will never forget the privilege of spending a week in the most spectacular environment. Back at base, we are busy putting the Winter Spice programme together with lots of new events being added to the website each day. So we hope you will find some special opportunities to do new things and meet new friends in the coming months. Your dreams may not be as ambitious as a Grand Canyon river trip - but whatever you want to do, we hope Spice will be your "life raft" as there's always room aboard! As ever, this Bulletin is designed to give you a quick overview of what is happening this week in Spice. “Anything in blue - should click through”.
