Fantastic evening at Chislehurst Golf Club – Charity Event with Music floating from the Terrace and cascading down to the 1st Tee!

 

Napoleon III was the nephew of Napoleon Bonaparte and, for a brief period he tried to re-build his uncle’s empire.  This included overturning the French Republic. However, his plans were thwarted by defeat in the Franco-Prussian war, which saw him exiled to London.  Settling with his wife Eugenie at Camden Palace in Chislehurst.

A delightful summer’s soiree in the grounds of  Sir Winston Churchill’s country home, Chartwell,  Westerham, Kent.

If you have not visited this idyllic English countryside – you are missing one of the gems of the National Trust’s vast collection of homes.

Go and see before summer is over!
