There was an excellent turn
out of ladies from the seven institutes that make up the Gallops Group
for the annual meeting together this year hosted by Wickhambrook with
Val Orange in the chair ably assisted by Jean Coe.
Due to illness on the night Rachel Sloane was replaced by fellow presenter
Nick Pandolfi from Radio Suffolk. He filled in at the last moment
and gave an excellent presentation much enjoyed by all present. He
was warmly thanked especially for giving up his evening and coming
at such short notice.
The members meeting in September was a "Harvest Horkey"
complete with Ploughman's supper and country dancing to follow, a
fun night for all especially the committee whose night off was much
appreciated.
In October we were joined by several visitors for the talk by Rodney
Tibbs on the ³Lost City of Petra². An excellent speaker
with very well taken and interesting slides, everyone now wants to
go and see what he told us about for ourselves.
There is always a warm welcome for any ladies wishing to come and
see what we are like with a view to joining us feel free to come and
visit.
For any further information on any of these meetings please speak
