    West Ilsley News May 2002 Next month’s WIN will be the Silver Jubilee edition, as it will be 25 years since the Clemengers started the WIN. Unfortunately, a copy of the first edition cannot be found (do any longstanding residents have one hanging around?) but we do have the July copy which reported on the Queen’s Silver Jubilee celebrations in the village. Clearly, West Ilsley was quite a “racy” place to live in those days, and we don’t just mean the horses – the WIN reported on a cross-dressing cricket match – look out for some snippets next month! Thanks to Sgt Rob Athawes for his police articles – the reports which we receive cover the whole of the Hungerford patch, and for reasons of brevity we edit out references to villages as far afield as, for example, Lambourn and Inkpen.
