Our next meeting:
THE CHARACTERS, CURIOSITIES AND ECCENTRICS OF LIVERPOOL
A talk by Ken Pye
on Wednesday 22nd September, 7.30 pm,
in the Olive Mount Community Centre
In his talk, local author and broadcaster Ken Pye will tell tales of some of the lesser-known, but entertaining, aspects of Liverpool life during the past two hundred years. Ken takes his lead from his audience, inviting them to choose tales from his extensive 'menu' of tasty topics. The list includes Rat's Castle, Blondin and the Lion, Dr Solomon's Cure-All, the Sanctuary Stone, the 'lost' moat of Liverpool Castle, Pogo the 'Man Monkey', Liverpool's own 'King Kong' ... and much more. "I'm like Ken Dodd", says Ken, "only better looking! But you do need a hook to get me off the stage, once I get started!"

NOTICE OF A.G.M.
The 34th Annual General Meeting of the Wavertree Society will be held at 2pm on Sunday 17th October 2010 in the Olive Mount Community Centre, Edgewell Drive, Liverpool L15 8GG. All members - and prospective members - of the Society are encouraged to attend. As there will not be another Newsletter issued before then, members are asked to make a note of the date now. We are hoping for a good attendance and a lively discussion about the Society's future - including our membership of Civic Voice, the new national body which was set up earlier this year. Nominations for the Society's Committee will also be invited, and new members will be very welcome.
