Cream Tea

A full house of members and guests enjoyed a delicious Cream Tea on Tuesday 13th August.  A huge vote of thanks to Angela and her Catering Team who seamlessly produced lovely scones, strawberry jam and cream with a good cup of tea. 

Maureen introduced Emma Kay,  the Town Development Officer for Teignmouth and Dawlish who told us about her work and her plans to encourage local shopping in these towns.  As HTWI strongly support the national WI resolution to increase support for local shops, Emma's short talk gave us some ideas of how we can do this.  Any suggestions from members are most welcome. 

We also welcomed representatives from other local WIs in our Group - it was lovely to have the chance to make contact and have a good chat.  There were also a number of visitors who we hope will soon become members.

CREAM TEA

Don't forget we are holding our Cream Tea at the Richard Newton Hall next Tuesday 13th August at 3pm.  Angela and her Catering team will be putting together delicious scones, jam and clotted cream with a lovely cup of tea.  Then it is up to you whether you put the cream on first then the strawberry jam (Devon-style) or jam first then cream!  It's a huge debate but either way it will taste good!

Also don't forget to bring contributions for the hampers we are putting together for the Richard Newton Hall's Autumn Fair - anything you'd like to find in a hamper and all donations gratefully received.  You can hand them to Maureen H, myself or any other Committee member.

See you there and let's hope for sunshine!
