MEMBERS gathered in the Village Hall on Tuesday, March 11, for the regular monthly meeting.

In the unavoidable absence of the Chairman the meeting was chaired by Treasurer Betty Clark.

Notices were given including details of two day outings which are now being booked.

She then welcomed back one of our favourite speakers - John Mason of Highfield Garden Centre who presented a programme of 'Spring Gardening Tips'.

The audience were not disappointed, questions were asked and answered by John who also very kindly gave items for the raffle.

Cilla Tidmarsh gave an enthusiastic vote of thanks and for his generosity on behalf of everyone present and regrets from those unable to attend.

Refreshments were served by Norma Rodman and the raffle was drawn, the winners were Marg Parish, Betty Clark and Marion Watkins.

The next Committee meeting will be on Monday, April 7, at 'Rosebank' Ruscombe.
