Here are some of the baked goodies, and some photos of the worthy winners of bake off. We elected our new committee and our secretary reported on what an eventful year we have had. Here are some of our meetings from the last 12 months,we've taken part in morris-dancing taught by The England's Glory Ladies Morris, tried yoga with Natalie Payne and watched a fantastic boylesque performance by Johnny O, listened to talks from a renown criminologist Dr Jane Monckton-Smith, and from local celebrity Eddie the Eagle Edwards, talks on genealogy by Amelia Bennett and wildlife photography by awarding winning photographer David Bailey, beauty tips from the No 7 team from Boots and we learnt about the interesting life of Melvyn Warren Smith whilst undertaking some life drawing with an Elephant in the Room! Also a lot of our members found the time to read books for book club, Hearty Diners dined at many restaurants throughout the county, crafters made cards,gift boxes, decorated pottery and painted butterflies, our Hiking Hurricanes met most months to go on countryside walks. We've collected shoe boxes for the Nelson Trust. And finally our social events; a skittles match, and a look round the WI centenary exhibition at Gloucester Cathedral followed by afternoon tea. Also our own quiz team Quizzy Raskals did very well in the WI quiz night.
Unfortunately Rachel our secretary is standing down due to work commitments. We thank her for all her hard work over the last months.
