Hi Annette,
> I've always wondered why Poole's emblem is the dolphin. Have they been > known to swim in Poole Harbour? Yes they do, but also porpoises who are often mistaken for dolphins > And is the Dolphin Shopping Centre what used to be the Arndale Centre? Yes again, when we remember to call it by the new (!) name. > (I used to love sliding through the middle of the wooden turtle in the Arndale > - I wasn't popular with my mother when I did it in white trousers!) Sadly the Arndale Center management removed all those wonderful wooden sculptures in 1994, just in case a child fell off and the parents claimed for damages. They were there for twenty five years without any accidents happening! > Regarding the Poole Bobbin Lace Circle's lace day in the summer - is it open > to non-members? Are there suppliers there? Yes and yes again. In addition to the annual lace day we have six meetings throughout the year. I suppose you could call them mini lace days. There are usually one or two suppliers, sales table, raffle, display and alternate meetings we have a speaker. Guests are welcome at our metings if introduced by a member. The next meeting is Friday 5th Sept at 7.00pm. You would be very welcome. Liz Pass (in Poole, Dorset) --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
