SUMMARY:Exhibition: Atomics to Medieval Knights
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to the positive visitors’ feedback and high attendance\, we are happy to let you know that the exhibition “Atomics to Medieval Knights – a history of Fitzharris Manor Estate” has been extended until Sunday 6th April.  \nThis tells the story of Fitzharris Manor\, from its beginning after the Norman Conquest\, when it was granted to a knight called Owen or Oin. One of his descendants was called Fitzharry\, whose name attached itself to the Manor and is still reflected in the modern housing estate. We track the history of the Manor through time\, and how the Manor House changed with a succession of owners. The exhibition then focusses on the coming of the AERE research establishment at Harwell\, which brought an influx of new people to the town – the “Atomics”. In order to provide housing for them\, a new estate was built on the site of Fitzharris Manor – the Fitzharris Estate. The exhibition looks at the construction\, the design\, and the people’s life on the estate and how the coming of the Atomics changed the town. It also lifts the lid on what went on at Harwell\, and some events which shaped world history but took place right on our doorstep. Much of the research into the history of the estate has been done by Mike Evans of the Fitzharris Estate Residents Association\, whose support makes the exhibition possible.

SUMMARY:The Rosellys with support from Rob Clamp
DESCRIPTION:Based in Herefordshire (UK)\, The Rosellys are a five piece band whose music can be best described as:\n“Capturing the essence of country\, with folk ingredients baked into a transatlantic roots fusion” (R2 Magazine). \nInfluenced by artists such as Chris Stapleton\, Alison Krauss\, Gillian Welch\, Gram Parsons & James Taylor to name a few\, it is clear The Rosellys have an absolute love for alternative country music. This family band is led by life partners Dr Rebecca Rosellys (guitar\, vocals\, banjo) and Simon Rosellys (guitar\, fiddle\, vocals)\, along with Simon’s Dad Allan Kelly (pedal steel/accordion) and father/son Matt Kirby (bass) and George Kirby (drums). They signed to Clubhouse Records in 2015. “The Rosellys displayed boundless energy\, especially on\nclosing song ‘You Ain’t Gotta Go Home’ with fast fiddle and a catchy melody sweeping the crowd along”. (Americana UK live review -2023) \nIn June 2022\, The Rosellys released their fifth studio album ‘On The Porch’. Rated 8/10\, Americana UK wrote; “expertly produced by Ron Rogers (T’Pau) this is a 14 track collection of stirring\, moving and classy fiddle and banjo-centric songs from a couple who\, 17 years into their relationship\, obviously really understand each other personally and musically – a highly impressive collection it is too”. Rating ‘On The Porch’ 4/5 stars\, R2 Magazine wrote; “Seventeen years of gigging means The Rosellys are a very slick unit indeed\, their alluring Americana and rootsy soundscapes further enhanced by former T’Pau Producer Ron Rogers sprinkling magic dust over the proceedings.” \nThe Rosellys have played several live sessions for BBC Radio 4’s ‘Loose Ends’ and their tracks are regularly featured on Hereford & Worcester’s BBC Introducing show – including a live recording at ‘How The Lights Get In’ Festival 2023. \n“The Rosellys blend English accents with lyrical references to both the UK and US alongside well pitched bass\, feisty drum beats and stunning pedal steel and fiddle to create a sound that walks the fine line between Celtic folk and Americana” (Nashville Over Here)\n“A brilliant band and a good example of that crossover where Britain meets America and it makes a very special sound indeed” (Ralph McLean – BBC Radio Ulster). \nSupport is from Rob Clamp. \nDoors and bar 7.00pm\, music at 7.15pm

Whilst these are the main games played there is always room for others and we have board games such as\, Rumble Slam\, Scythe and many more. \nThe club is based above the willows shake shop at the heart of Abingdon town centre and sessions take place on Mondays and Wednesday between 6:30pm and 10:00pm. On Saturday it starts at 10:30am and ends at 4:00pm. There will always be one committee member at each session to welcome you\, and of course me on a Wednesday. \nIf you want to know more you can email (bloodandwar40@gmail.com) or check out our website (https:/a-grim-dark-gaming-society.square.site/). \nIn the evenings and at the weekend you can get refreshments downstairs such as milkshakes\, coffee tea and cold drinks so there’s a wide variety of hot or cold food available\, depending on your taste. All in all this is a great opportunity for people who want to play strategy games for a small fee or you can watch the games and seek advice for free.
