THAME

Wednesday (7.30 pm)

The Barns Centre, Church Lane, Thame

Formed October 2, 1977

The idea of starting a Thame Group came from Jim (deceased) who asked Father Brown from Thame to come to our Aylesbury meeting to see if he liked it. He did, and as a result the Thame Group began its meetings at the Catholic Church. Jim was the first Secretary, David P the first Treasurer and Norah gave the first Chair.

David writes “The room was freezing so we had two choices: to have the wall heaters on which made a noise like jet engines and nobody could hear what was being said; or turn them off and become blocks of ice! A compromise was reached when the group bought two portable heaters and put them in the middle between the tables which were arranged in an oblong shape.” Thus the problem was solved in the Fellowship’s best traditions of ingenuity and determination!

In due course the meeting moved to its present comfortable venue at the Barns Centre.
