Thank you, everyone for helping the Winter Warmer Lunch raise £415.

A group from the Village Singers were treated to a tour of the upper levels of Wells cathedral organised by Malcolm Mogford. Weak hearts and nerves were overcome and the fascinating tour culminated in beautiful views from the top of the main tower.

It is possible to hide parts of an article by using a conditional directive. Consider the following

Hello [mosif user=admin]administrator[else]everbody[endif]

If you create an article containing the above, only the administrator will see "Hello administrator", everybody else will see "Hello everybody".

• The above is deliberately wrong to allow you to see the construction. You need to replace the square brackets [] with braces {}

• See the documentation for a full explanation (examples are at the bottom)

This just in from Bob Walden...

My wife, Jean and I, along with Rocky and Vickie Parsons of Springfield, Missouri, USA, visited Vickie's uncle, Bill Tyley in the summer of 2006.  We met many special people there and loved Westbury.  Bill's hospitality and the townspeople's friendliness made it our best vacation, ever.  Our love to Bill and friendship to everybody we met

Bob sent some photographs which are are in the gallery.

Here are a few brief notes that might help clarify a few points for those of you creating articles for the website

• Where do articles get stored?

• Should I keep updating a single large article for my organisation?

• Removing an article after a few weeks.

• Ordering of articles

• Centering text

• Using "Read more..."

June 7th was a lovely summer afternoon and 79 Friends and visitors came to the Strawberry Tea in the village hall. Seeing the sign outside the hall inviting passers by to join us all, 8 holiday makers did just that and came in to have afternoon tea at this annual village event.

The Chairman and committee would like to thank everyone who came to support us and to help raise the sum of £320. Thanks also to those who kindly made jam and scones, and to others who donated raffle prizes and helped behind the scenes. This was once again a very happy and enjoyable afternoon helping to raise money for St Lawrence Church fabric fund.

A very friendly group that meet at 1930hrs on the 1st Tuesday of the month (excluding August) in the village hall. Each meeting starts with the business of the month followed by a guest speaker. Coffee/tea and biscuits with a social chat ends the evening.

Subscriptions for the year are £27.00 per person which includes the monthly magazine “W.I.Life”.

VISITORS are always welcome at a charge of £2.00 per person per visit.

The slides from the training evening are now available as a pdf file.

On the evening, we were running short of time and the  internet connection wasn't too good so much of the content was skipped. As a result, some of the slides might not be familiar to those who were present on the evening.
