Thanks again ronpat.
I didn’t prepare the text that was loaded into the database, but I think it was Times New Roman. I don’t think there were any tab settings; layout used the tab key and space bar.

From your Chairman
We had an excellent attendance at the AGM which took place on 9th May last. The Assistant Director of the National Trust, Jim Foy, joined us and updated everyone on the proposed plans for Clandon Park. He also presented much deserved 30 year service awards to Mary King and Sue Terry for the voluntary work they have done for the Centre. Jim Foy thanked the audience for the West Surrey Centre's generous donations over so many years. Mary added that working for the Centre is very enjoyable and wishes that more members were prepared to get involved, for example in organising outings.
We have as usual had some very successful and interesting trips over the past few months. However, sadly some of the proposed trips did not prove to be so popular and had to be cancelled. We would welcome your comments on why you think this may have been and also suggestions for the type of trips or events you would like us to arrange. Howe er, in order for us to continue to do this we are in need of some more volunteers. In particular we would like to find someone who would be able to possibly arrange some canal trips and visits by members' own transport to local gardens. If you feel that you could help us in this way please contact me either by telephone on 01252 810708 or by Email saaragwsnt@gmail.com.
Sadly Diana Trayler has resigned as Publicity Officer and we thank her for everything she hs done for the Centre. We need now to recruit someone who would be prepared to take over this role. This would entail putting together the Newsletter, ensuring that local National Trust properties have supplies of our membership application forms and distribution of leaflets to advertise our local events. If you might be interested in doing this please contact me for further information: I will be very pleased to hear from you.
We are lucky to be able to use Hatchlands for parking as Clandon Park will not be available for the foreseeable future. Please carefully observe the instructions in the Programme and respect that day's gatekeeper.
We are now planning our events for later in the year and will be holding the Autumn Lecture, Coffee morning and Bazaar, Christmas music and Christmas Lunch. This year these will take place at the Clandon Regis Golf Club which we hope will prove to be a very suitable venue for us.
Regretfully, due to personal circumstances, I have stood down as Chairman and passed the baton to Steve Duckworth. The Committee have asked me to continue in the role of Vice Chairman.
Saara Graham.
AGM
Over 150 members attended our 46th AGM at Ripley Village Hall, more than could have been accommodated in the saloon at Clandon Park. Dame Penelope Keith, our President, ensured that as always the proceedings ran smoothly. Saara Graham, our Chairman, reported that the committee had been busy trying to find an alternative to our beloved Clandon Park. Clandon Regis Golf Club had been selected as the most suitable venue for the next events such as the Autumn Lecture and Coffee Morning, and she hoped that members would turn up in great numbers. Saara also thanked the outings organisers for the excellent progamme of outings and lectures.
Our Treasurer, Alan Terry, reported that the Centre had donated ÂŁ30,000 this year to the National Trust; this figure had been boosted by a bequest from Mrs McKay, who had been a member for many years. At the rear of the hall was a display of thanks you letters from the NT properties we had supported.
The AGM was followed by a very enjoyable talk from Dame Penelope Keith entitled:-
An afternoon with Dame Penelope Keith
“How do you learn your lines?” is a question Dame Penelope has been asked frequently. “While doing the ironing! This probably is not the case today, as young people don't iron anymore.”
Dame Penelope told us that she had always wanted to be an actress, from drama school straight into repertory theatres. Then followed TV work. Can you imagine the first TV programmes went out live! What stress for the actors, totally unknown to the current generation. She loved doing 'The Good Life' and 'Tyo the Manor Born'. When asked whether she preferred the stage or the theatre, she replied that when doing one, she sometimes thinks that the other side is better. She is now in the happy position to choose, having recently completed a run at Chichester Theatre where she played the legendary 19th century actress Mrs Patrick Campbell, she is now involved in another TV series of “Hidden Villages” and a new “At Her Majesty's Service” which explores the Officers of the Realm. How many know the the Duke of Argyll was court marchalled for fraternising with the enemy, because he allows the famous football match at Christmas during the First World War?
Looking into the “Secret Files of the BBC” was an experience she relished. “If the BBC did not exist, we would have to invent it”.
An Amazing afternoon with our amazing President.,

Clandon Park Update
Following the archaeological salvage from the house the NT has considered many plans ranging from leaving it as a ruin to a full restoration. They have decided to restore the historically significant parts of the house to their 18th century glory whilst also creating a building of relevance to modern times. The most important rooms on the ground floor will be restored whilst the upper floors will be transformed to create flexible spaces which could be used for exhibitions, events and performances. A competition will be held later this year to find the right archotect to bring this space alive. Research around the house has produced a picture of the original 18th century gardens and it is hoped to rejuvenate these.
Lost Property
1 Grey fleece, a pair of lady's black leather gloves, 1 brown knitted glove. All left on coach trips. Contact Mary King 01252 713641. If they are not claimed soon they will go to a charity shop.
