Driftin' Away




Some of Angela's Driftwood Art

At the Craft/Social Club this afternoon, Angela Purnell gave a demonstration of the Driftwood Art she has created.  Angela showed us how she makes art from driftwood found on our beaches and impressed us all with how she creates such things of beauty from such simple and natural materials.

Angela's demonstration
About 20 members enjoyed the stimulating and creative demonstration and the opportunity to have a good chat with friends.

Many thanks to Angela for sharing her talents with us and to the members of the Craft/Social Club for their hospitality.

HARVEST SUPPER

Last night's Harvest Supper was a most enjoyable and successful evening.  About 45 ladies met up to celebrate the season with a delicious meal of goulash followed by apple pie.  The hall looked lovely.



And after much hard work and preparation behind the scenes, the meal was served.



Everyone enjoyed the food and afterwards Maureen had created a very difficult Harvest Quiz which was won by Pam Webb's table.  Anita Edgar also sold goods to raise funds for El Shaddai, a charity which helps Indian street children. It was lovely to see Cynthia Somerfield, our WI Advisor who spoke a few words to the group and welcomed our newest members, Cathy, Helen and Marian.

A huge THANK YOU to Angela and the Catering Team for such a great evening!
