WI Notes
After attending to business matters at the May meeting, the WI discussed the
resolutions that are to be put before the National Assembly in June.
The first of these was a motion that was to be put before the Government pressing for renewable energy to be used in all new buildings, re-building and renovations. All forms of renewable energy were discussed - polar, wind, hydroelectric, geo-thermal and nuclear, and although no decision was reached as to which method was best it was carried unanimously, that the motion should be put forward.
The second resolution was for more sport activities for a healthy population, and after reminiscing about the sports we all played at school when we were young, and rueing the day so many school playing fields had to be sold off, we all agreed that sprot and PE should definitely be put back on the school curriculum.
On to much lighter mode and a delightful talk by Hilary Sage on the acting career with the Pembroke Players, the Footlights, open-air Shakespeare and at the Edinburgh Festival. Her talk was full of amusing anecdotes, and put us all home with a smile on our faces.
Next month, on 19th June, Julie Drake will be telling us how to Grow Old Disgracefully. Sounds fun!
