Speaker: Dale Johnston
Dale is Events and Exhibitions Manager at Banbury Museum. His talk is about the female munitions workers during the World Wars, who kept the allied front lines supplied with weapons and explosives. They earned their nickname because prolonged exposure to toxic chemicals like TNT turned their skins and hair a bright yellow.

Marriage
The Church’s teaching on marriage and its attitude to divorced people has long been a bone of contention to many. As you may know, the Synods of the Church (the Parliaments, if you like) have been, or will be, chewing this bone. Your Parochial Church Council invites you to its meeting on Thursday 27th in Church at 8 p.m. when we shall have a chance to hear what is suggested and to make our own position clear. It promises to be a most challenging meeting. You will be most welcome.
