The London Cultureseekers Group - Meet People in London!

Join us online on Saturday 28th November at 1:30pm for a general quiz about London! The quiz will be a picture quiz and all you have to do is guess the correct answer (some questions will be multiple choice) to general questions about London! No teams, just answer the questions individually. Please have a pad and pen to write down your answers. For future quizes, could everyone make sure to stay muted when questions or answers are being said. If you didn't hear a question, please unmute and ask, but make sure to mute again afterwards. If lots of people are unmuted, it creates lots of background noise and can make it harder for others to hear.

One evening every 2 weeks in November/December, we will be having a series of talks titled 'Historic English Cities'. Each talk will feature a different historic city in England, that has its origins going back 2000 years. I will talk about its history from Roman to Medieval times and upto the 20th century. I will talk about famous people who lived there, its historic buildings and festivals that take place in the city today. About the talks For each talk, I will be using Powerpoint slides to talk about the city. The remaining talk will be on: Thu 17th: 'Historic English Cities - Colchester' Each talk will last about 1h 10mins, with questions/an open discussion afterwards. About the third talk - Gloucester Gloucester sits on the edge of the Cotswolds and the Mendip Hills, about 110 miles west of London. It has a population of about 130,000 and is linked to the River Severn via a canal system. The Romans who had a settlement here from 48AD called it 'Colonia Glevum Nervensis' and it was an important crossing of the River Severn and near to the Fosse Way, which was an important Roman road. A major attraction of the city is Gloucester Cathedral, built in the 11th century on the site of an abbey dating back to 678. It is known for its stunning fan vaulted ceilings, it is the burial place of King Edward II and features in scenes from the recent Harry Potter films. A good number of medieval and Tudor period gabled and half timbered houses survive from earlier periods of Gloucester's history. Cost is £4 per person (payable when you RSVP). Please note: you won't be able to pay via the app, only the full site. You also don't need a Paypal account to pay, just a credit card.
