Issue 49. April 25th 2013

Duck Race Thanks! Thanks to all who have sponsored Ducks for our

Duck Race on Sunday. We also hope to see some of you on the day. There’s also still time to “buy” your

Duck who could win you a prize of Champagne, Duck Cakes by Sue, Chocolate Duck Egg, Dinner at

Delhi 6, Afternoon Tea at Mocha and more! To see video click HERE Event details click HERE

Like a bit on the slide? Try the Big Zipper!

When we heard that Europe’s biggest zipwire was coming to a Welsh quarry this year, I thought

“we’ll have some of that!” So the negotiations started and we now have our first date to try it out for real (and judging by the speed of

bookings we’ll have more dates to follow!) It does mean getting to North Wales, however, your

journey is rewarded by a 3 hour experience that includes 2 zipwires (“Little Zipper” & “Big Zipper”)

and a tour/ summit ascent by truck. The highlight is a 1 mile zipwire that transports you

500 feet above the dramatic Welsh scenery at speeds approaching 100mph, flying like Superman!

Now isn’t that exactly what you joined Spice for? To read more and view YouTube clips of what’s in

store, click HERE Claire and I plus Dave Smith from Spice UK and Lauren

from Spice Manchester have already booked! So if you are fighting a serious adrenaline addiction,

why not let “Big Zipper” be your undoing!

As ever, this Bulletin is designed to give you a quick overview of what is happening this week in Spice.
