DITCHINGHAM WI
The March meeting began with the President welcoming all and the singing of Jerusalem. Apologies were received from Jackie, Jenny and Beryl. Jenny read the minutes of the February meeting and these were signed as correct. The Scrabble day had been a great success with members enjoying the day and returning home full of food.. The Group Meeting is on 31st March at Poringland Community Centre and the speaker is Carol Bundock. We have had an invite to Alburgh WI on April 8th, the speaker being Joyce Kimber. Final arrangements were discussed for the Fashion Show on March 13th at Poringland Community Centre. The Speaker - Pip Wright was introduced. He had come to speak on Travelling East Anglia on a Bus Pass. This was a very interesting talk with slides of how far you can travel in a day on a bus pass. The competition of an interesting post card was won by Anne H - 2nd Maxine and 3rd Maureen. April meeting is on 9th at 2.30 the speaker being Andy Malcolm on the History of Fish and Chips and the competition is Mr Potato Head!
Since the meeting the Fashion Show has taken place. This proved to be a most successful evening with over 80 members, friends and guests attending. A big thank you to Pam C for helping me organise it and a bigger thank you to the models - Pam L, Barbara, Jenny, Anne A, Viv and Margaret H. A very enjoyable evening was had by all, if not a little nerve trembling at times!!!
Thanks
Sue
