Our Recent Events

Over the past week or so we have had two really well and successful events, as we are not always out campaigning, especially over summer bank holidays!

On the 24th August, Islington CF had a really fun wine tasting on Middle Eastern wines. We sampled a good mix of Israel’s and Lebanon’s wines. We were led by interwined.com writer, Jacob Gaffney and the wines were supplied by Illi Adato from the WorldWineXchange.com. After a few hours of wine tasting, and good conversation a number of members went off to The House in Canonbury and then, I understand, a few even made it on to Fabric.

Then on last Saturday we had a more subdued affair, with a Summer Garden Party, held at the kind invitation of Martine and Peter Oborne in Highbury Fields. Four members kindly baked scones and cakes and these were washed down with tea and followed by a glass of Pimms. Chris Skidmore, Deputy Chairman, donated a signed copy of his book on Edward VI: The Lost King of England.

If you are interested in attending our future events then please contact the Association.
