SALTFORD STATION CAMPAIGNThe petition of over 2000 signatures calling for the re-opening of Saltford Station hasbeen presented formally to the House of Commons by Jacob Rees-Mogg MP. ChrisWarren, Duncan Hounsell, Rich James and Rob Taylor travelled to London by train fromKeynsham and handed the petition to Jacob Rees-Mogg in Westminster Hall. The petitionwas presented in the Chamber later that day in a short ceremony shown live on BBCParliament. This is another boost to the campaign and our thanks to Jacob Rees-MoggMP for arranging the day, all the people who collected the signatures and everyone whoexpressed support.
The Bath and North East Somerset Council has announced that it intends to act as theofficial “promoter” of the station project and to allocate funds to take the project throughthe initial stages of development. This represents a great step forward for the campaignas B&NES can conduct discussions with the rail industry on a formal basis. Ultimatelythe decision whether a Station will be re-opened at Saltford will be a commercial oneand dependent on attracting full funding.

Thesecretary will continue for the forthcomingyear and a new member, Mrs. Pat Stone,will take over as the new Chairman.

April produced a sunny morning and theWansdyke Room was bathed in sunlightand decorated in a Spring theme of yellow.The Secretary and Treasurer presentedtheir reports and the Chairman gave noticeof forthcoming events. Followingrefreshments, members settled to enjoythe speaker, Tony Griffith, who turned outto be a magician. For the remainder of themorning, his audience listened andwatched his performance, his patter wasfast and amusing, and, as for his magic, itwas faultless. Even those in the front rowwere amazed and unable to fathom hissleight of hand. A truly magical morning..Saltford Afternoon WI

His was really goodentertainment (much of it before the age oftelevision) and it is all available now on CD.
The Members Recipe was the mainattraction for the May meeting. This year,it will be a white dessert wine. Percy Mellorgave us a choice of wines to taste for themembers to choose which one to make.He also read out to us some amusinganecdotes that he had taken from variousarticles.

It rained mostly when we wereunder cover. We enjoyed two steam trainrides, on the Romney, Hythe andDymchurch line and on the Kent and EastSussex Railway, visits to Hythe and Rye,and a wine tasting at the SedlescombeOrganic Vineyard. The entertainment atthe hotel was first class for the three nightsthat we stayed there.
