Come and join us for the first day of spring for a bluebells and woodland flower extravaganza - the woodlands will be starting to aliven with spring growth and the surrounding fields will be producing the first buds of their farming produce. We start in Shiplake - an ancient Viking town name for ‘ship lack’ - this was as a far as the Vikings could get their ships to their main encampment in Reading. Famous people frequented these parts - George Orwell lived in Shiplake, the English poet Alfred Tennyson got married in Shiplake Church and Elizabeth I’s treasure is buried near Rotherfield Greys. The real gem will be the spring flowers that will be budding throughout as we walk over fields and into woodland with some splendid views of the River Thames. We will visit a National Trust 16th century house - Greys Court - for afternoon tea as we meander back to Henley for a drink by the River Thames. This will be English countryside in its quintessential beauty and at its best – so come and join! **SUMMARY (all info is approximate!)** **Distance**: 22km (13.75 miles) **Ascent**: 300m **Duration**: 6-7 hours walking **Grade**: Moderate **COST AND LOGISTICS** **Cost**: £10 **Start**: 8.40 London Paddington for Group Save **Meet:** 8:50 for those who buy their own tickets & walk to train **Finish:** 5.30pm in Henley and optional pub visit. **Recommended morning train from London** **Dep**: 09:08 London Paddington **Arr:** 09.52 Shiplake **Return** **trains:** 17.30, 18.00, 18.30pm **Recommended train ticket** Off-Peak Day Return to Henley * **£16.65 group save/ network rail price** Recommended: Buy a yearly Network Railcard for reduced train prices www.network-railcard.co.uk **Meeting Point:** In front of Heathrow Express Ticket Office **REVIEWS** [Trip Advisor](https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attraction_Review-g186338-d19994843-Reviews-AAA_Hiking_Outdoor_Group-London_England.html) \| [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/AAAHikingUK/reviews) \| [MeetUp](https://www.meetup.com/aaa-outdoor-hiking-adventure-travel/feedback-overview/) **PRICE INCLUDES** * Guided hike planned and led by an experienced AAA leader, trained in Outdoor First Aid. **PRICE DOES NOT INCLUDE** * Travel costs * Lunch, drinks or any refreshments * PayPal fees **RECOMMENDED KIT LIST** [(](https://mailchi.mp/aaalondongroup.com/kitlist)[complete list]()[)](https://mailchi.mp/aaalondongroup.com/kitlist) * Suitable hiking shoes or boots * Packed lunch and snacks * Water - 2 litres recommended * Waterproof jacket and trousers (Please no jeans!) * Warm windproof layer e.g. Down/Primaloft/Fleece * Wicking base layer e.g. Polyester/Tencel/Merino **CANCELLING/REFUNDS** If you can no longer join the hike, please message the Host listed on here, and update your RSVP status to 'Not going', to allow others to take your place.

A special celebration of the SPRING EQUINOX and our last sunrise-synchronised gathering until the Autumn Equinox.\*\* \*\*(Don't worry, we'll continue to meet regularly on Saturday mornings, just not so early. This is because as the sunrise gets really early, it gets difficult to find public transport to Primrose Hill and there are no cafes open for us to warm up in afterwards. So **from 21st March to 22nd September, THE SUNRISE CLUB transforms into THE 7AM SUMMIT**. We will meet at 7am at the top of the hill to start our Saturdays with the same fresh air and city-stillness that we've got accustomed to during the winter.) **So please join us for the final special sunrise for a while.** On Saturday 21st March, we will: * Meet from: 5:45AM at the top of Primrose Hill * **Sunrise at: 6:01AM** * Take in the view and hang out for a little while * Walk to a nearby cafe (Roots on Regent's Park Road) * Warm up with coffee (with 10% off) Become part of our community of regulars, or just drop by for a one off experience. We meet frequently - sometimes weekly, sometimes fortnightly - to create and sustain community. New people are always welcome :-) **[WHATSAPP GROUP](https://chat.whatsapp.com/C2KwIp79riz1A71dNF6pgF)** to keep up to date **[INSTAGRAM](https://www.instagram.com/thesunriseclubetc)** to see what these meetups look like **[SUBSTACK](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/)** for the newsletter and occasional extras **[WEBSITE](www.alltogether.one)** for all other groups We are easy to find because we will be at the top of the hill with a big flag that says 'THE SUNRISE CLUB'. These are free meetups, but if you’d like to make a donation in support of my mission - to get people together, to create connections, and have fun - you can donate here: '[buy me a coffee](https://www.buymeacoffee.com/bonnyastor)' ❤️ \*\*You can also join us on [TRIBE](https://tribeirl.com/the-sunrise-club)\*\*

This meal is a celebration of balance — indulgence without excess, spice with restraint, and dishes that invite conversation as much as comfort. Drawing from royal Indian culinary traditions and reimagined through contemporary forms, the menu reflects a table where cultures meet, stories unfold, and time slows down. Join us for a thoughtfully paced vegan dining experience, where crisp, refreshing beginnings give way to rich, comforting mains and a dessert that lingers softly at the end. Each course has been designed to echo both royal Indian flavours and globally familiar forms — tacos, arancini, tempura — creating a menu that feels welcoming, elegant, and quietly indulgent. **What to Expect** * **Royal Mélange** *Shaved cucumber dressed in a delicate rosewater vinaigrette — light, aromatic, and refreshing* * **Nawabi Tempura** *Crisp seasonal vegetables served with a creamy, gently spiced curry* * **Galouti Taco** *An indulgent, soft kebab cooked with spices and herbs, folded into a warm taco* * **Okra Burani** *Creamy spiced yogurt with crisp okra chips, finished with fresh herbs* * **Makhani Arancini** *Masala rice arancini paired with a rich, velvety makhani gravy* * **Pistachio Kulfi Cheesecake** *A nutty, kulfi-inspired cheesecake delicately flavoured with pistachio and cardamom* The menu is accompanied by **Nawabi Nectar**, a house mocktail/cocktail crafted to complement the aromas and richness of the evening. **The Shahi Table** is more than a meal — it’s an invitation to gather, to slow down, and to experience Indian flavours through a lens of elegance, warmth, and shared pleasure. Come for the flavours. Stay for the feeling. We look forward to welcoming you to the Shahi table. *This is an intimate gathering of 10 people, BYOB if you wish.*

Another quirky walk with Giselle: it's the Chinese Year of the Horse! Let's celebrate it with this horse themed walk, to include the context of the year of the Fire Horse in the Chinese zodiac. We will start in Chinatown and make our way over to Aldgate via Blackfriars and the Shad Thames area. It will be a 4 mile walk that should take 2-2.5 hours, so more of a good workout this time. Please bring sturdy shoes and an umbrella just in case. We'll go rain or shine. To end at the Running Horse pub, keeping with the theme, they also do food. Please bring the £8 in cash, it will go towards site costs, thank you. Please note there is an **attendance contribution of £8** which goes towards the yearly Meetup platform fee, and our organisers voluntary time, both necessary to keep this club alive and running!

Welcome, readers! Our March read is **_The Bean Trees by Barbara Kingsolver._** The story follows Taylor Greer, a young woman from rural Kentucky who leaves home for the West, only to find herself unexpectedly becoming the guardian of an abused Native American toddler named Turtle. In Tucson, Arizona, they form a makeshift family with a diverse group of people, including Guatemalan refugees and a single mother, exploring themes of motherhood, community, belonging, and finding hope in hardship. The story blends humor with serious issues, creating a story about finding family in unexpected places. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖

Join us as we get together to see Ryan Gosling and Sandra Huller in the highly anticipated sci-fi adventure, PROJECT HAIL MARY! The film is based on the best-selling novel of The Martian and follows a man who awakens on a spacecraft before realizing his mission to save Earth. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: A science teacher wakes up on a spaceship, light years from home with no recollection of who he is or how he got there. As his memory returns, he begins to uncover his mission to save the Earth. The film is directed by the filmmaking due Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (21 and 22 Jump Street, Into and Across the Spider-Verse) and is based on the 2021 novel by Andy Weir (The Martian). The film stars Ryan Gosling, Sandra Huller (Anatomy of a Fall, The Zone of Interest), Lionel Boyce, Milana Vayntrub and Ken Leung. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VYsnngkS_U BUZZ AND REVIEWS: The buzz and reviews for PROJECT HAIL MARY are off-the-charts good! The film is earning a 95% Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where critics call it an “old school blockbuster crowd-pleaser” and “a new sci-fi classic!” It’s “deeply hopeful,” well-acted,” funny,” “dramatic,” and “exceptionally rousing throughout!” Others call it “something truly magical” and one that “we’ll be talking about this one for decades to come!” And I believe Slashfilm says it best: “It will lift up and squeeze your heart, crack you up with laughter, and give you a sense of hope and wonder in a way that few movies have been able to inspire.” MOVIE PLAN: Please purchase your ticket for the 2:30pm SuperScreen DLX showing and meet in the lobby area between 2:05 and 2:15pm! Tickets already on sale and will likely move fast for this hot ticket / opening weekend showing so advance ticket purchase as soon as possible is advised!

DINNER PLAN: Dinner immediately following the movie at 5:30pm at group favorite, FUGU SUSHI, located just next door! Separate RSVP required for the Dinner / Movie portions of this event.
