Welcome! Well, tapestries are certainly in the news at them moment, with the decision by France to loan the Bayeux tapestry. Still looking for somewhere to display it? Surely it would look marvellous next to our very own Sunbury embroidery. There’s a thought! In this issue we talk plastics and recycling. It has been high profile in the news and social media so good on Dennis van Wonderen to dedicate his page in this issue to the subject and what he as a shop keeper is doing about it. Others, take note! We also bring you a fantastic 200 year old watercolour of Halliford House which has turned up as a result of our articles on the house in recent issues. It is always exciting to get these connections as a result of the magazines.
February 2018 Finally, please take note of the new parking system at Sunbury Cross. So many of you have been fined for going over the one free hour at the ground level. Please be careful to stay under an hour or park in the multi storey for two. The landlords are not at all sympathetic and the fine is £100!
