Wijn tours

Come along on Saturday 18th April to visit the historic town of Hertford! **About Hertford** Hertford is the county town of Hertfordshire. Its only 20 miles north of central London and only has a population of 30,000. The town grew up on a ford on the River Lea in 913AD where the Rivers Rib, Beane and Mimram join the Lea. Its name comes from the Old English word '*Herut*', meaning a fully mature stag; thus the meaning of the name is a ford where stags are found. The town has a castle (now just a gatehouse remaining) built by the Normans in the 11th century. In 1563, Parliament met at the castle because of an outbreak of plague in London. Its most famous resident was Samuel Stone, who was born here in 1602 and later emigrated to America. He was instrumental in developing the community he settled in into a city, renaming it Hartford (in the state of Connecticut today), after his birthplace. From the 18th century onwards, the town prospered as a market town, with many warehouses and trade on the river. The town has lots of medieval, Georgian and Victorian properties, along with a local museum. **Cost** The guided tour is £8 per person (payable on the day by cash, credit card, PayPal or Bank Transfer). The guided tour is only open to Full Members of the group. For those that are not doing the guided walk, its a self-guided tour using handouts that I will provide. **Aprox Itinerary** 9:45am - meet at the station and get GroupSave return train tickets (in groups of 3) to 'Hertford East' 10:08am - catch train 10:57am - arrive at Hertford East Station and walk into the town 11:15am - arrive 11:30am - guided tour of Hertford (for Full Members only) with a tour guide.

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Here is the secret of being positive and free: Thinking positively is not enough. You also have to get rid of the negative thinking. Your mind is like a garden. You can plant many beautiful flowers in it, but if you don't get rid of the weeds when you plant your flowers, the weeds will soon take over the whole garden. A positive thought is like a flower in your mental garden, and a negative thought is like a weed. You cannot expect to have a positive mindset if you continue to have negative thoughts dwelling and growing there. So, how do you get rid of the negative thoughts? That's what this Meetup is all about. Attend this local meeting and find out! The Meetup event will be led by a consultant who had helped many people live happier in life.
