EARLY in June, many of our members attended the Federation Rainbow Day, held at the Victoria Hall, Hartley Wintney, where there was an array of tables displayed in many colours with varying themes.
Our theme was quite rustic as our chosen colour was terracotta. In the afternoon, guild members were entertained by the Rainbow Choir.
At our June meeting, the speaker was Paul Le Leuvre. His topic was his life as a radio presenter which began 30 years ago. It was interesting to hear how it really began at Lord Mayor Treloars Hospital in Alton and then a local radio station in Alton.
He then followed on to our local Kestrel FM radio and Basingstoke hospital. Paul Le Leuvre also transmits programmes from France via Skype.
Some of our arts and crafts group made greeting cards to be used by our guild, others were knitting and, of course, the usual chat and coffee.
The ramble was in Crookham Village followed by lunch at The Black Horse pub. Coffee morning was held in The Willis Museum and our monthly lunch was at the Red Lion Hotel If you would like to know more about the Townswomen’s Guild, why not come along and be welcomed as a visitor? We meet every second Tuesday of the month at Sarum Hall, Sarum Hill, Basingstoke, from 10am until noon.
