You will hear a member of the Stanthorpe Twinning Association speaking at a meeting about the association's recent and forthcoming activities.
First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 15.
Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 15.
It's wonderful to see such a good turnout of association members this evening.
Ever since Stanthorpe, here in England, was twinned with the French town of Malata, the connection between the two places has continued to grow stronger.
Twenty-five of our Stanthorpe members travelled to Malat for a weekend last month.
Our hosts had put together an excellent programme for us.
We found out how the local cheese is made and, of course, sampled some of it.
Unfortunately, the outing to the theme park was called off, but the activity everyone talked about afterwards was the boat journey along the river on our final day.
It was definitely the best part of the visit.
This year is particularly important for the association, as it marks 25 years since it was formed.
Malata intends to celebrate the occasion by constructing a footbridge in its town park.
Here, in Stanthorpe, after considering several possibilities, we've chosen to plant a poplar tree in the museum gardens.
We did discuss putting a new garden bench there, but the local authorities didn't approve that proposal.
Our fundraising has also gone extremely well this year.
The Pancake Supper attracted a large crowd and brought in more money than any of our other events.
The French cookery session was popular too and raised almost as much.
Attendance at the film screening had to be restricted because the venue was small, so next year we hope to use a larger place.
We're now getting ready for our French guests, who arrive next week, and many people here will be accommodating a visitor or a whole family.
Their coach is due at 5 o'clock on Friday afternoon.
They're likely to be exhausted after the journey, so hosts shouldn't arrange too much that evening.
It would be better to serve dinner at home, either indoors or in the garden, instead of taking everyone to a restaurant.
The forecast is favourable, so a barbecue could be a nice option.
On Saturday morning, there's the usual market in the town centre, which is ideal for a relaxed walk.
On Saturday evening, the whole group will gather at the football club.
Toby Sharp and his band will be back to perform traditional songs from England and Scotland.
Many of you will remember Toby from last year, when he ran our special quiz evening and handed out the prizes.
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 16 to 20.
Now listen carefully and answer questions 16 to 20.
On Sunday, we'll take our visitors to Farley House.
As some of you may not have been there before, I'll use this map to explain the layout.
The car park is shown at the bottom.
There's a very good farm shop in the grounds, where visitors can purchase produce from the area.
It occupies part of the old stables, the first building you reach from the car park.
The stables form three sides of a courtyard.
When you enter that courtyard, the shop is in the far corner on your left.
A small café is located over on the right.
A few of our guests may find walking difficult.
Since the main doorway to the house is reached by quite a number of steps, they may prefer the accessible entrance.
That entrance is on the opposite side of the house from the car park.
The adventure playground is likely to be the children's favourite place.
Look at the larger lake on the left of the map.
The playground is at its northern end, where the path curves as it approaches the water.
There are plenty of activities there for younger visitors.
Several attractive gardens lie close to the house.
The kitchen gardens are easy to recognise because they're rectangular and enclosed by a wall.
You'll find them north-east of the house, not far from the smaller lake.
They're still productive and contain a wide range of fruit and vegetables.
The Temple of the Four Winds requires a longer walk, though the destination is well worth the effort.
Starting at the car park, follow the route past the western sides of both the old stables and the house.
At the fork, choose the path on the right.
Continue with the woodland on your left and you'll reach the temple at the very end of the path.
From there, the view across the estate is excellent.
That is the end of part two.
You now have one minute to check your answers to part two.
