SUMMARY:Uzès Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday 21 April\, 3:00pm\nAt a Member’s home the third Tuesday of the Month \nIn April\, we will be discussing ‘Project Hail Mary’ – a gripping novel about survival\, ingenuity\, and unexpected friendship\, centered on a lone astronaut tasked with saving humanity. Written by Andy Weir\, author of The Martian\, this 2021 novel follows Ryland Grace\, a former science teacher\, who wakes up aboard a spaceship with no memory of who he is or why he’s there. As his memories return\, he realizes he’s the last hope for Earth\, sent on a desperate interstellar mission to stop a mysterious cosmic threat. The story blends hard science fiction with humour and emotional depth. It features detailed problem-solving\, alien contact and a surprising alliance that challenges what it means to be human. It promises to be an interesting read. \nThe Book Club has a waiting list at the moment but we are happy to share our 2026 book list (created via a member poll) if anyone is looking for new reading ideas.  Please contact us if you are interested in being added to the waiting list or receiving our book choices. \nChristine Frati                                              Angela Denton-Thompson\nchristine@britsnimes.com                             angeladt@britsnimes.com

SUMMARY:Gardening Club
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 2 May\, 10:00 am\nJardins les Sentiers de l’Abondance\nEygalieres\n\nSpring has now finally sprung in the gardens and there’s lots for us to do!  It’s so nice to see the new shoots and buds heralding another cycle of life. \nOur April meeting has been delayed until May 2\, because the Spartacus event is on our usual Saturday.  So on May 2nd we will be going to the Jardins les Sentiers de l’Abondance in Eygalieres to discover their organic Mediterranean planting using traditional techniques and irrigation\, respecting biodiversity. \nThey have made canals for irrigation originating from a natural water source and cultivated plants to suit the environment and accommodate the insects including bees. There are flowers all the way through from February to October. You can read more about it on their website: https://lessentiersdelabondance.com/ \nThere will be a guided tour in French starting at 10:00 am followed by a brunch. This will be a paid in advance event and numbers are limited. \nPlease contact me at Julia@Britsnimes.com for more information. \nJulia Crick\njulia@britsnimes.com
