The
decision was taken to raise the Monthly Subs to £5.00 per meeting and
remain at Wimborne Road at the present time. An alternative meeting
place is available should we need it in the future.

Robert Till - April 2016
Tuesday, 12 April 2016
Robert's demonstration was very interesting and enjoyed by all.
He showed us how to make a bird nesting box with a rounded bottom; hollowed out of one large piece of a tree branch. He also made a removable top to fit on the hollowed piece so that it could be opened and cleaned after the nesting season is over.
All members present thought it had been an enjoyable evening and would look forward to seeing more demonstrations by Robert in the future.
