I have my trusty National Trust booklet here, "What's on in Devon & Cornwall", Autum, Winter & Christmas 2006.
I posted a few events around the forums in relevant threads however I thought I would centralise the events in one place for people to look at and put on their calendar. I have only listed the ones here that I thought might be of interest, mostly fungi foray's. There are a lot of wood walks aswell, hopefully I'll get round to posting those up here.
