As our speaker's topic was 'A Boy on a Farm', we decided to theme our afternoon accordingly! Everyone arrived in some kind of farm gear: plenty of beautifully adorned hats, some authentic Americam cowboy gear, a beautiful old smock and plenty of jeans and boots! Our raffle prizes were also on theme: cider, cream, butter and jam, and a lovely array of vegetables. (There was another prize, too, which I forget! Perhaps someone could remind me?).
The food was a farmhouse tea - delicious light scones with cream and jam and a wonderful selection of cakes. Also, lots of tea!
The talk was very entertaining, evoking memories of all sorts amongst the audience: outside toilets, syrup of figs and old money, to mention but a few!
Finally we had a couple of brain teasing quizzes - causing much head scratching and discussion!
