2026 is approaching fast and we’re already planning for it! So…

Our next annual QUIZ NIGHT will be on

Save the Day!
More details later…

Last month we enjoyed welcoming our visitors from Bohars.  Here’s a few pictures from their visit.

Eating does play a big part of course; we share a love of good food.  Here we are at The Cheshire Cat…

Crossing the Pontcyllite aquesduct in a narrowboat…

A visit to Chester…

Our get-together at Huxley Village Halll, including our version of the Olympic games, with medals for the winners…

Our visitors have only recently departed back to Bohars after the latest visit.  This is a picture of some of us outside Chester Cathedral.  We’ll be posting some more pictures of the visit soon, but in the meantime here’s a link to an article in Le Télégramme:

Une dizaine d’adultes de Bohars ont séjourné ce week-end à Tarporley, la ville jumelle

 

 

More than 70 people enjoyed a not-too-challenging quiz, refreshments and socialising at our 2025 quiz.

The quiz was hosted by our new chairperson Margaret Corlett.  David Dunning, our former and long-standing chair, introduced the proceedings.

A young persons visit to Bohars from Tarporley will take place in August 2025.  Children pay for their travel to/from France; everything else is taken care of by their French hosts.

Over the 2024 May Bank Holiday a group of us from Tarporley, Duddon, Huxley, Bunbury and other local villages travelled to Bohars.

There was a welcome supper at the newly-renovated Bohars community hall, the picture below shows us standing outside it in the very bright evening sunshine.

Another day we ate in a restaurant with spectacular views over Brest harbour, and our other activities included a visit to the Stang Botanic Garden and its greenhouses, a trip to the city of Quimper with a visit to the Museum of Fine Arts and the Saint-Corentin Cathedral.  A great time was had by all!
