Downs Ladies Club

The minutes were read and after an early cuppa we were joined by our speaker for the afternoon Mr Eric Stevens whose talk was entitled "Why do plays have scenery?"

We were taken on a fascinating journey going back many centuries as to the origins of how plays came into being, and also shown samples of how the scenery developed over time.

The vote of thanks was given by Anne Tasker.

Our next meeting will be on March 11 when it will be our annual meeting and our speaker will be Mr Brian Purdy whose talk and slides is entitled "Tantivy Trot".

Feel free to come along for a welcoming cuppa and a chat. We meet in the small hall of St Stephens Church, Woodsgate Park, from 2.15-4.15pm.
