Business was kept to a minimum at our December meeting as it was our party night! Sheila Allies and Sue Lavery had devised some great games for us – including sculpting with aluminium foil and writing amusing postcards. With a special Christmas quiz to tax our brains and a lively game of pass the parcel the evening was good fun.

There was a delicious supper to which everyone had contributed, and the committee provided punch and various fruit drinks. Part way through the evening we had a surprise visit from Mother Christmas. Having asked if we had all been good that year and receiving an unanimous “Yes”, she proceeded to distribute presents to all. A really fun evening to end another very good year for our WI!

The winners of the competition for a table decoration were Sheila Allies and Jenny Store in joint first place and Angela Bilboe in third. The annual cup was won by Jean Barton with 24 points followed by Jean Rogers with 23 points and Janet Cullis in 3rd place with 18 points.

We have a very interesting programme to look forward to in 2018 so why not come along and join us at our meetings on the second Thursday of the month in Wulstan Hall, Priest Lane. You will be very welcome!
