MEETING
HELD

2006
May Deaville our President opened our meeting with apologies
from Mr Rily who was to have been our speaker but unfortunately
had to cancel, she went on to introduce Mrs Mills who had
kindly stepped in at very short notice. Mrs Mills
is a Blue Badge tourist guide and named her talk - follow
me - I think I know where I am going. She was very
humorous and informative and told of some really nice places
to visit.
Doing a six months training course in London was very exhausting
she said and difficult. Also having a scenic tour
of Sussex for her practical on - how to guide, having to
know all roads, buildings of interest and their history.
Such a lot to remember, but she finished the course and
finally received her Blue Badge.
She now guides at Titsey Place and Gardens of Oxted Surrey
and the National Trust Surrey Hills explorer tours.
Joan Wigley thanked Mrs Mills for a very interesting talk.
Our competition of a decorative egg cup was won by May Deaville.
An Invitation from Farncombe Evening WI was accepted by
four of our members, Project Peru on 20th July.
Our next walk is on May 12th meeting at The Manor
Inn Farncombe at 10.45. A circular walk - lunch at
The Manor Inn.
Next meeting May 2nd - Resolutions and a Beetle
Drive, Competition - Souvenir from Abroad.
Everyone welcome to visit any of our meetings so come along
and have a chat, we'd love to see you.
