Tysoe W.I.

Our President welcomed three visitors to our almost full house.  Lighter evenings and a popular speaker make all the difference to an attendance.  Mr. Allan Winterburn was the speaker with his talk on ‘Little known Warwickshire’.  With the help of slides he pointed out all sorts of nooks and crannies over the county that most people would overlook.

Philippa Robinson gave us a résumé of the County Spring Council meeting, the A.G.M. in other words, that she and Pam McLeod attended in Leamington.  After business in the morning we had two excellent speakers to entertain us, one being Norman Willis.  Many of you will remember him as being Secretary General of the T.U.C.  Not so well known is that he is Director and Trustee of the Royal School of Needlework.  He brought samples of his work to prove it.  He is also quite a comedian.

We are having our annual Coffee, Cakes and Plant morning at the Old Schoolroom, Tysoe on Saturday May 24^th. 

We have also planned our Summer Outing for Thursday, June 26^th, to what is known as the ‘Alternative Hampton Court’.  This is between Leominster and Hereford.  We hope to be joined by friends and keen gardeners, especially vegetable gardeners.  More details will be provided in the next report.

This site is maintained by villagers of Oxhill for the benefit of the community and those interested in the history, news and activities that make the village such a pleasant place to live.
