27 Members were treated to a wonderful hour of rambling merriment from returning entertainer Stewart Sheppard.  In addition to playing us some musical memories Stewart told us of his ‘illness’ of collecting memorabilia from people throwing it into rubbish tips.

Among the items he displayed were a petrol Jerry Can ( worth £80 today); a Minton washing bowl (£200 today) ;  and an original poster from Worthy farm rock and Folk party in a field, which became what is now known as Glastonbury Festival . To think that people were throwing this away !!

Stewart Sheppard.
