Please use pencils only:
We have new tablecloths so please do not use pens. Pencils have been supplied. Too many people tap the cloths when thinking and it has always been a problem removing the ink.
EVENING Mentoring sessions on alternate Mondays at 6:30pm only:
By far the most popular start time is 6:15 for 6:30pm. Please could both mentees and mentors email or text Larry if you intend to come. Next session will be 8th April.
Bring your regular partner, if possible, it can make all the difference to your results. More...
