Danehill Stores: The May meeting was truly local with a trip back to 1970's Danehill. Goo Coomber told us about her parents who ran the shop at the time, when it seemed to sell a remarkable range of goods including clothing, shoes, DIY materials along with food and post office services. A memorable meeting and Goo also donated her speaker's fee to the Parkinson Society.
