IN our October meeting Lynda Warren evoked many memories in her talk on The Wartime Kitchen’. Rationing! Only one egg a week, cabbage boiled for forty minutes, recipes using vegetables in cakes. Cold, wet Anderson shelters. Blackouts. Saving coupons for clothes. Next moth we look forward to unravelling ‘The Secret History of Defford Airfield’ with David Vernon.

We welcome visitors to join us for coffee at 10.30 before the talk on Wednesday 2 November at Broadwell Village Hall when you can find out about our pub lunches, Friday walks and outings. Contact 01608 652267.
