Clerk’s Column October 2007
The Shed. As readers of the Andover Advertiser will be aware, the developers of the Airfield site have been bending over backwards to show that they have listened to us and actually read some of our letters. As a result they have made some pretty drastic changes to their plans in terms of reducing – …
WI Newsletter – October 2007
It was laughter all the way, when several of our members attended the Danebury Group Autumn Meeting, where we were entertained by Ann Chance who had us laughing throughout the evening as she described how she came to jump out of an aeroplane dressed as Wonder Woman – fortunately with a parachute – and all …

Clerk’s Column June 2007
Planning. The Andover Airfield saga continues. Tesco’s agents have still not submitted an application, but the opposition is taking advantage of the delay. On May 17th a meeting in our War Memorial Hall was attended, among others, by the Chairmen of 8 Parish Councils, together with Phil Lashbrook, TVBC Councillor, and Peter Derbyshire representing RoADAC …
WI Newsletter – June 2007
As promised in our May newsletter, there is so much to mention this month. Just in case you have forgotten, I can remind you that we have had some good weather this month, as our walking group met to revisit Barton Stacey on a sunny Saturday at the beginning of the month, enjoying a lovely …
