January Meeting - the Bishops Palace Gardens, Wells



Great attendance - delighted to see so many on a fairly miserable night - plus the bonus of at least 4 visitors - we had to go and look for more chairs!! The speaker told us a little of the history of the Bishops Palace and lots about the development of the gardens there. Interestingly, he and his family live 'on site' in a cold flat at the top of the Palace - how interesting - I wonder if it is a bit spooky when you go home at night?

Helen and Doreen (our new President and Secretary) ran an excellent meeting and Ruth read two of her most amusing poems.
Having received an email appeal for Mary's Meals in Haiti - a voluntary collection was held - the money collected will be sent off by a member.
