WI Notes
At our meeting on May 19th, we dispensed with the normal practice of having a
speaker and entertained ourselves.
We spent some time debating National Resolutions which WIs throughout Great Britain will be voting on in June., and which hopefully you will hearing more of during the year. Charlotte Dickenson taught us about the dangers of bottom-trawling (ie trawling for fish on the sea-bed) , and Margaret Joyce spoke on the inappropriate imprisonment of the severely mentally ill. Both resolutions were carried unanimously after lively discussion.
Two member - Pat Airey and I - then gave potted histories of our lives so far, which caused a lot of laughter and unseemly catcalls from our normally polite audience!
Next month, we have an outing to Abbots Ripton Gardens on June 21st, meeting at the Village Hall at 10.30am.
