Apologies- Tina, Pat, Susan Jan, Wendy M, Wendy C, Mavis, Alison

Brixham W.I. welcomed Members from Uffculme W.I. to join them for the September meeting, and before the meeting to partake of a fish and chip lunch in the Harbour. Much enjoyed.

Our meeting was visited by The Lady Katherine in character and costume. A Tudor Lady who addressed the Members as if back in Tudor period. She then told us she creates her own costumes and allowed us to see how her outfit was created. A delightful afternoon, and appreciated by the visitors vote of thanks. (Editor’s note: ‘Lady Katherine’s farthingale’ is her Facebook page if you would like to know more about her. )

There was a shortened business section.

The recent Galmpton Fund Raising effort raised £2,300+ for Rowcroft. Well done!

The recent trip to Fermoys Garden Centre was excellent and much enjoyed, so was the tea. Everyone had a great time at the bowling session (with delicious cakes!) at St Mary’s Bowls Club.

There will be a craft session to make Christmas crowns 2.00 on Tuesday. Usual tools and christmas cards will be required.

The talk at the group meeting on 29th October will be on Muffin the Mule. Stoke Gabriel Football Club, 12 o’clock for 12.30. Tickets £5

Visit to Truro on November 20th has 9 places available. There will be a late return as the plan is to stay for the evening lantern event.

There was a vote of thanks from the Uffcombe Members for our hospitality.
