August 1st
7pm “Douglas Adams: Parrots, the Universe and Everything..- DVD, supper and discussion”                                                                             Blind river dolphins, reclusive lemurs, a parrot as fearless as it is lovelorn ... Douglas Adams' close encounters with these rare and unusual animals reveal that evolution, ever ingenious, can be fickle too --a University of California talk that sparkles with his trademark satiric wit.
In accidental spacefarers, bureaucratic aliens and depressed androids, the inimitable Douglas Adams gave a voice to the many facets of the human condition -- with sidesplitting (and bestselling) results.

7pm "Freedom of Thought
An interactive evening discussion, with a few surprises. Every week, at our public evenings, we read an extract from The Freedom of Thought, a general Resolution by The Theosophical Society made in 1924. How many of us genuinely honour this? What are the Golden Stairs that Helena P Blavatsky says the learner climbs to The ‘Temple of Wisdom and what relevance do they have to Freedom of Thought, and the way you live your life."
