Around ten members gathered upstairs in the gallery at the Norwegian Church to enjoy a presentation about trolls from the society’s own Thomas. Thom led us through a whistle-stop tour of the background of these mysterious creatures including their history, the different types of trolls one may encounter, their appearance in folklore and literature and and their portrayal in recent film and television. Refreshments were available via the Norsk cafe and Tyra kindly made a chocolate cake for all to enjoy. Thank you Tyra!
In addition, our member Mary brought archival items and documents gathered by herself and her family related to the Church such as newspaper clippings and original photographic negatives from the church re-opening. We are very grateful to have received such a special and important collection of items and are certain that these will be of value to the preservation of the Church’s history.
As always, there was plenty of time to catch up and mingle following the talk.
