We are planning a visit to Winchester Cathedral at 11:00 am on 10/02/25

(https://www.winchester-cathedral.org.uk/welcome/ ).

• This will be a self-drive trip for up to 20 people.

• The Cathedral address is ( 9 The Close, Winchester Hampshire, SO23 9LS, United Kingdom)
• There are a number of car parks options for parking:

1. Winchester Park & Ride (https://www.winchester.gov.uk/parking/park-and-ride/)
2. Park in Central Winchester (https://www.winchester.gov.uk/parking/parking-and-car-parks)

It will be a “guided tour” of the Cathedral and will include the Cloister and Crypt if it is not flooded.

The cost will be £11.00 each for a maximum of 20 people. The trip is wheelchair friendly but there are steps and is likely to take an hour.

There is no organised lunch for this trip, Winchester has many eating places and members are free to make their own arrangements.

If you wish to come on this trip, please advise me soonest by emailing me on kevin.barter2@ntlworld.com. As the trip is restricted to 20 persons it will be on a first come, first served basis. No money should be paid just now but I will send the successful applicants details of how to pay by BACS.

If you have any questions on this trip, please contact Kevin Barter at kevin.barter2@ntlworld.com or 07974 111551

The Questers committee is planning a visit to the Royal Logistic Corps museum at Worthy Down to take place on Thursday, 16^th January 2025.  This will be a self-drive visit with ample parking, a Starbucks cafe and is wheelchair-friendly.  The tour should last no more than 60/90 minutes including a guided tour of the museum which will start at 11am.  There should be ample opportunity to examine displays after the tour.  It is suggested that you arrive at the car parking area at 10.30am at the very latest to have time for your refreshments.

With military history on display from Agincourt to the present day, including Monty’s D-Day Rolls Royce, a range of military horse-drawn and motorised logistic vehicles, uniforms, weapons, medals and much more; this fascinating and unique museum gives visitors an insight into how the British Army was moved, supplied and been sustained over the centuries.

Please note that we will NOT have access to the Army camp therefore I will not be wearing uniform or medals!

There is a charge of £8 which includes a cup of either tea or coffee (please specify which at time of booking with me) prior to the guided tour and a donation to the RLC Charity would of course be welcome!

Names to Pete Duncan soonest with your preference for either tea or coffee, by email ONLY (see below).  Closing date will be Thursday 5^th December even if you’ve given them to me already at the last meeting.

Pete Duncan
