This month’s book is Tom Lake by ann Pratchett. It’s been recommended by the BBC and ReeseWitherspoon’s book club and The Times placed within the top 50 novels of the year (2024). It’s spring and Lara’s three daughters have returned to the family orchard. They want their mother to tell them about her romance with a film star with whom she once shared a stage. This is a book about youthful love, married love and the lives parents lead before children. It explores what it means to be happy even when the world if falling apart,

Пожалуй, сложно найти человека, который бы не смотрел знаменитый фильм Стивена Спилберга про динозавров 🦕 (или хотя бы не слышал о нем). Многих людей во всем мире привлекает тема доисторических времен Земли. Ну и мы не стали исключением! Мы отправляемся на Юрское побережье, которое представляет собой береговую линию протяженностью 95 миль, включая части восточного побережье Девона и Дорсета. Сейчас сложно представить, что когда-то здесь бродили огромные рептилии 🦕. Однако многочисленные находки ученых говорят о том, что история этих мест охватывает 185 миллионов лет развития нашей планеты. Не случайно Юрское побережье было внесено в список Всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО как объект, представляющий научную значимость. Находки, сделанные тут, позволили совершить открытия, которые во многом способствовали развитию палеонтологии и составлению древней картины мира. Кроме научных «красот», Юрское побережье славится своими восхитительными пейзажами, первозданной красотой и уникальными природными достопримечательностями. Самой известной из них является Durdle Door — известняковая природная арка. Конечно, аркой она стала не сразу. По мнению ученых, около 140 миллионов лет назад здесь сформировалась сеть пещер, образовавшихся в трещинах горных пород. Затем на протяжении многих тысячелетий «дизайнеры» природных ландшафтов — море, солнце и ветер — создавали это чудо природы. В самом высоком месте скала достигает 200 футов. До сих пор на известняковых породах Durdle Door можно заметить отпечатки, похожие на рябь — это окаменелости древних останков растений и животных. Вот таким непостижимым образом миллионы лет различных природных процессов привели к тому, что сегодня мы можем наблюдать фантастически красивый морской пейзаж😍! Не менее яркой достопримечательностью Юрского побережья стала Бухта Лулворт 🏞 — небольшой залив в форме подковы с идеально ровными берегами, которые сформировались в результате постепенного размыва пород. На весь мир бухта славится уникальной геологией и удивительными рельефами, а окрестные пейзажи напоминают кадры из рекламы «райских» островов. Также в нашем туре мы посетим живописный мыс «Голова летучей мыши🦇», получивший свое название в связи с тем, что у основания этой скалы находится маленькая пещера, ставшая домом для этих животных. Окруженный зелеными лугами белый меловой утес с достаточно крутым обрывом в море — сказочное зрелище! Итак, мы отправляемся в красивейшие места Великобритании, чтобы насладиться чудесами природы и познакомиться с древней историей нашей планеты. Нас ждет множество неожиданных открытий и потрясающая прогулка «по следам» динозавров. Присоединяйтесь! Может быть (кто знает!), и вам повезет сделать важную историческую находку! 📝 План поездки: 📍 **07:45 Встреча** у отеля **[Hotel Novotel London West](https://goo.gl/maps/isJaR8654Y62)**, 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (рядом с Hammersmith Station) 📍11:00 – 13:00 [Lulworth Cove](https://www.lulworth.com/visit/places-to-visit/lulworth-cove/) (входит в десятку лучших мест по красоте природы в Великобритании), прогулка к [Fossil Forest](https://lulworth.com/visit/places-to-visit/the-fossil-forest/) и [Stair Hole](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stair_Hole) (2 км) 📍13:00 – 14:00 Свободное время, обед в деревне [West Lulworth](https://www.dorsetguide.com/west-lulworth-village/) 📍14:00 – 16:00 Пешая прогулка к [Man O’War Beach](https://goo.gl/maps/wCkYyXz4BgTm8MZq8), [Durdle Door](https://www.lulworth.com/visit/places-to-visit/durdle-door/) и меловому утесу [Bats Head](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bat%27s_Head) (3 км) 📍16:00 Отправление от [Lulworth Visitor Centre](https://lulworth.com/visit/plan-your-visit/visitor-centre/) 📍19:00 London, Hammersmith 👣 Продолжительность путешествия зависит от погодных условий и дорожных пробок. ✅ Включено в стоимость: ⚜️ Аудиогид на русском ⚜️ Тур-менеджер, говорящий на русском и английском языках ⚜️ Транспорт, организация мероприятия ⚜️ Профессиональный водитель с курсами IAM/RoSPA ⚜️ Администрация и помощь во время путешествия ⚜️ НДС и все налоги, комиссия платежной системы (карта/банк/PayPal) ❌ Не включено: ❌ Входные билеты: цены указаны в плане путешествия ❌ Питание во время путешествия: индивидуальный выбор ❌ Трансфер в место встречи и после завершения поездки ❌ Остановки автобуса для посадки/высадки пассажиров по пути следования ❌ [Страховка](https://www.coverwise.co.uk/) в случае травм, потери багажа и личных вещей, отмены тура в последнюю минуту ❌ [Evebus Club](https://evebus.com/ru/evebus-club/) – переносы броней без потерь, [выбор посадочного](https://evebus.com/ru/seating-plan) места ❌ Экскурсовод: £20 с человека при условии набора группы от 6-ти участников 🎒 Что взять с собой: ☑️ Воду/еду по желанию ☑️ Фотокамеру и зарядку для телефона ☑️ Хорошее настроение 🙂 ✳️ Обо всем остальном мы позаботимся.

Pitch.london is a curated speed-networking event for founders, operators and serious builders. Short, structured conversations. Sharp prompts. Real chemistry, fast. The hardest problem in early-stage entrepreneurship is finding the right people. Most events leave it to chance. We don’t. The room is curated, the prompts are clear, and the format is built for high-signal encounters between people who are actually building something. In one evening, you can meet more relevant people than you might in months of random networking. Two formats. One room. Zero fluff. **01\. Founder matchmaking pitches** Sixty seconds to share who you are, what you’re building, and what would actually help right now. Whatever you’re looking for, the room is built to help you find it: people to build with, people to hire or be hired by, advisors and investors, or honest feedback on what you’re shipping. **02\. Group brainstorms** Small, time-boxed groups tackle a real challenge brought into the room. Bring a live problem you’re stuck on. Get five minds on it for ten minutes. Leave with new angles and next steps. **This room is for you if you’re:** * A founder seeking a co-founder * A founder seeking a first hire * An operator looking for a serious team to join * A technical builder open to commercial partners * A commercial builder open to technical partners * A second-time founder scoping the next thing * An angel investor close to the early-stage scene It’s probably not for you if you’re hunting for clients, selling services, or still working out what you’re looking for. **Run of show** * 17:30 to 18:00 Doors, drinks, soft start * 18:00 to 18:05 Welcome and the rules of the room * 18:05 to 18:35 Speed pitches: Round 1 * 18:35 to 19:15 Group brainstorms * 19:15 to 19:45 Speed pitches: Round 2 * 19:45 to 20:00 Open networking, then drinks at the citizenM Skybar **What’s included** Your £25 covers your seat in the room and a drink at the citizenM Skybar after the programme. **First 30 in get a seat**

**West London Solo Parents Support Group** **Friday 3rd July 2026, 7.30pm– 9pm** **Seal House, Ealing W5 4HR** Being a solo parent can feel lonely and exhausting at times - and it can make such a difference to be with others who truly understand. This group offers a welcoming space to make connections, share experiences, and feel supported by people on a similar path. All solo parents are warmly welcome. To book your space, just drop me an email at teresamortellstevens@proton.me - it would be lovely to have you join us.

Let’s meet and discuss John Updike's Rabbit, Run, the first in his series of four novels following the life, hopes, and disappointments of former local basketball star, Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom, as he fitfully confronts and evades adulthood.

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.
