28th October Speaker - Dave Moon will be talking about the history, supported by pictures, of the National Garden Scheme (NGS). Visiting gardens gives you loads of ideas as well as being relaxing and fascinating to see what other people do. There are some good gardens to visit locally and your entrance fee goes to charity so a ‘win win’ situation. Do come, 7.15 for 7.30pm
