Old Raanr Skye Jenkins SKYE Jenkins, a student at Monmouth School for Girls, was sponsored by Ross Rotary Club to attend the RYLA 2015 and she came to a recent meet- experiences of that event. Prior to attending the course Skye said that speaking in pub- lic to a group of people, wheth- er they be friends or strangers, was a major challenge for her and whenever possible she would avoid it.

Ross-on-Wye VAGA PROBUS CLUB - Talk by Dr Tim Brain on Guy Fawkes. the Gunpowder Plot and Terrorism. Tim. with a Phd in history and an ex-chief constable gave us a very detailed and interesting account of events and characters involved leading to the attempted destruc- tion of the Houses of Parliament on November 5. 1605. Commonly known to this day as Bonfire Night. Whilst this is a historic event this would today be classed as terrorism. After Queen Elizabeth I died in 1603. English catholics who had been persecut- ed under her rule had hoped that her successor. James I, would be more tolerant of their religion. James I had. after all had a catho lic mother. Unfortunately James did not turn out to be more toler~ ant than Elizabeth and a number of conspirators decided that vio- lent action was the answer. A small group under the leadership of Robert Catesby felt that violent action was warranted. Indeed the Sonrl news, events, [)ltlllH‘S and (In!) town is. to numb us by loam l iidny for consideration for publication thing to do was to blow up the Houses of Parliament. In doing so. they would kill the King and the Members of Parliament 1.21m were making life difficult for the Catholics. To carry out their plan the conspirators. got hold ol Jo barrels of gunpowder and stored them in a c rAllar inst unde r irr Houseof I ords .‘Asthe (group vioi ked on the plot it o .
