A very happy Christmas to all our readers.

There are no events in December and the Store is closed for its Winter break until it re-opens on 3 February for the 2019 season.

The first few events for 2019 events are shown on the Calendar of Events page.



New report on the AGM and talk ‘Restoration of the Gardens at Wimpole Hall’ by Philip Whaites.

The Winter edition of the Weeders Digest, covering events up to the AGM was published at the end of November and is now being distributed.

After the business at the AGM on 14 November, Peggy Sjoberg presented her plans for a 5-day holiday to Warwickshire in late May 2019 based on the Stratford Manor Hotel near Stratford-upon-Avon. This holiday is now fully booked but vacancies will most probably occur. For further information or to place your name on a reserve list contact Peggy on 854337.

She also offered to arrange an late September holiday to the Commodore Hotel in Instow, Devon if sufficient members show interest.
