September 2023 newsletter
Hello, I do hope you have all had a good summer in spite of the rain. Eight of us certainly had rain on our WI outing to Greys Court which included a surprise tour of Berinsfield. We all made the most of it and had a really good time. It is well worth a visit for the gardens alone. I am definitely going back to see the wisteria in bloom and Christmas is meant to be good as well.
