Now March is the month for the Annual General Meeting or AGM as it is known. The month when we all have a chance to change things if we so desire. The chance for members to have their say on the way things are run. Don’t be shy – say what you think.

This meeting doesn’t last long as a rule so David has arranged for a Picture Quiz to be held after the official business. Making use of the projector we purchased for the club he has devised a quiz that has two answers to each question. He guarantees you will be able to answer one of each question so you will at least total a half score at the end. Come along and enjoy yourselves.

We have one of our famous auctions for the February meeting, so bring along all you have no longer any use for. And please do not set any reserve too high as this seems to put people off bidding. Quite often when the bidding is left unrestricted the selling price reaches the desired level anyway. Bring your bits and your money and Kevin will try to extract both of them from you. 10% of the selling price is deducted for club funds and the remaining 90% is returned to the seller. See you there.

We enjoyed another very interesting talk from Pip Wright. This time his subject was about a local woman, Margaret Catchpole. The story, with pictures, dealt with her life from being in service to her two death sentences and her subsequent deportation to Australia. I am sure every one present enjoyed the talk.
