Happy New Year to everyone and I hope that
you had a Merry Christmas. As I am typing this I still have lots of
things to do before the 25th December and by the time you read this
Christmas will seem a long way away. Nearly everyone looks forward
so much to Christmas, and then it is gone in a flash!!!
Anyway, to our meetings in the New Year:
Events
26th
January
we have a talk on the 'Gardens of Normandy
including Monet's'
The speaker is Mrs Sue Robinson from Bury St Edmunds
this begins at 7.30pm in the W.I.
Hall
23rd February
there is a talk by Mr Peter Lewis of Weston Colville
entitled 'Alpines and the Rock Garden'
7.30pm in the W.I. Hall
At the AGM held in November it was decided to keep the annual membership
fee at £3, but to increase the monthly meetings to £1.
We have had to do this because, like everything else, the speakers
were charging more and more for their talks. We think this is still
very good value and hope that you agree!!

Everyone
is welcome to the above meetings, so hopefully we'll see you there
The Summer Flower Show this year will be
on the 10th July 2004, so you all have plenty of time to plan what
you are going to grow this year so that you can make an entry and
join in the fun.
The Summer Coach outing this year will be on the 17th July and we
are planning to go to Wisley. We have been there a few times, but
we have lots of members who have not been, and they have requested
a trip there. There is lots to see and, although I have been there
three times, I have not been in July. It is the sort of place you
could visit a dozen times anyway and still see something that you
have never seen before. There will be more details in the next Scene
regarding prices etc.
Don't forget our monthly meetings, we are a friendly bunch and you
would be very welcome. The £1 includes tea/coffee and biscuits
so they really are good value.
