Having not had a meeting this month, there is very little to report, but there was an unofficial get-together for a hastily arranged photo opportunity around “our flowerbed” – a quick ring-round by Sheila Lockhart soon had us organised. Just to keep you in the picture (pun definitely intended), during the summer, Test Valley Borough …

WI Newsletter – July 2007
After such a busy June, this month has been less hectic and for our July meeting we enjoyed the kind hospitality of Sue Farr at her home in Quarley. Despite the ever-present threat of heavy showers that have been abundant this summer, the evening remained dry and we were able to take pleasure in an …
WI Newsletter – June 2007
As promised in our May newsletter, there is so much to mention this month. Just in case you have forgotten, I can remind you that we have had some good weather this month, as our walking group met to revisit Barton Stacey on a sunny Saturday at the beginning of the month, enjoying a lovely …
WI Newsletter – May 2007
At our May meeting, members were once again reminded why their diaries are so full at the moment (all to be revealed in our June newsletter) and given up-to-date information on all that is happening. We then had a resolution to discuss, which referred to the closure of Community Hospitals. Naturally we all wish to …
WI Newsletter – April 2007
When we met this month, the entertainment for the evening was organised by the members rather than the committee, but first it was News & Events when members are kept informed of everything that is happening at all levels of the W.I. Of course, members can access information in many ways, apart from the Internet …
WI Newsletter – March 2007
Those of you who read this newsletter each month will know how much we were looking forward to welcoming Barbara Parker of Parkers Handmade Cakes & Chocolates to our March meeting. Barbara enthusiastically demonstrated the art of the chocolatière. She advised how best to temper (melt) chocolate to have a good liquid to work with …
WI Newsletter – February 2007
Most of this month was spent concentrating on our tremendously successful Pancake Morning held on Shrove Tuesday. Thanks must go to everyone who came and supported us on the day and who enjoyed eating our freshly cooked pancakes. We were delighted to see all our guests of course, but it was particularly enjoyable to see …
WI Newsletter – January 2007
By the time our members met at the end of January, they had received their first copy of the controversial W.I. Life and as far as this Institute is concerned, the feedback was positive. As this is our 90th Anniversary year, we have a busy schedule during the next 12 months. Members were urged to …
WI Newsletter – December 2006
Once we have recovered from our Annual Meeting in November and enjoyed our Christmas Celebrations in December we take a well-deserved break, ready to come back fully refreshed in the New Year. Once again our December meeting took the form of a Dinner in the Village Hall, where all our members had to do was …
WI Newsletter – November 2006
We’ve done it, we have now finished walking the Test Way – it has only taken us 19 months to walk 44 miles! That’s not the whole story of course – we actually did it in nine stages – the last one being on the 18 November when we walked from Combe Gibbet to LInkenholt. …
