April Speaker Meeting - Those Extraordinary things we say - presented by Jennifer Cowling
St Paul's Parish Rooms, Wokingham, RG41 1EH
Tuesday 21st April 2026
The talk will ask are you the kind of person who happily uses phrases such as “a turn of the screw” “a turn up for the book” “cupboard love” or been “taken to the cleaners” in your everyday conversations. Maybe you are oblivious to the fact that many of your listeners have no idea what you are taking about. A light-hearted look at figures of speech.
