The next gathering of the Stormy Petrels will take place on Friday, July 26th.
We will meet at The Tapestry at UBC for our annual “Classic Movie Night” at 6:00 for snacks , movie begins rolling at 7:00.
Should you show up in Sherlockian-inspired dress, your Consulting Detective will reward you with a gift.
We will be treated to two movies. These were actually two episodes from a television series which originally aired in America in 1954.
“The Red-Headed League” and “The Case of the Shoeless Engineer” both starring Ronald Howard as Sherlock Holmes.
Please contact me if you are able to attend, as our host Brian needs to inform “Mrs Hudson”.
Hope to see you all there!
