QueenswayMethodistHall

A year ago,(was it that long?) a young lady gave us an interesting talk on the Women’s Land Army. Those present may remember the costume dummy and the large display of photographs and documents. Helen returns next Wednesday. She says:  ‘My illustrated talk brings to life the fascinating story of the ‘Tank Banks’ that travelled the country during the Great War. Tanks, banks and souvenirs, marvel at Ole Bill, Nelson Drake, Egbert and Iron Ration!’  All are welcome to attend the meeting at The Methodist Church Hall, Queensway, Bletchley at 7.30. Wednesday 5th June  2024
