Christmas W.I. Meeting

 The next W.I. meeting is on Wednesday the 17th December at 7.30 in the Village Hall. Gilly Peters-Parr will lead us in a craft session involving embroidery (bring needle, thread and scissors if you have them). This will result in us all taking something home to hang on the Christmas tree.

We’ll be enjoying mulled wine and mince pies and if you want to join us you will be very welcome. Come along bedecked in outrageous Christmas jewellery if you want to enter the competition.
