At our general meeting in June we were pleased to welcome Jo Phillips once again as our main speaker. Jo always entertains us with her histories which bring old Coventry to life in our minds. Perhaps my use of the phrase "bring ...to life" is inappropriate in the case of Jo's deliciously macabre tales, and this reservation is borne out by the subject of her latest talk, "Bring Out Yer Dead". We learned a great deal about the Black Death, or the plague and its impact on our city.
