July Institute Meeting - a great success!

 Thank you to Brixham WI committee and members who all worked together to make this afternoon’s meeting run so smoothly! Wow! It was brilliant!

Our speaker, Maggie Duffy, was very entertaining, interesting and amusing! She held us enthralled! Wendy C gave a stunning thought for the month, and we had cake with our tea! Fabulous!

Sorry, I forgot to take any photos!

Monday Walking group

 So, this is what the Monday walking group get up to….drinking coffee and having a chat! How gorgeous was it this morning, sitting in the shade of the Old Fish Market, looking out over the harbour! #thisisthelife! Mary W, Fiona, Gail, Sue M, Wendy P, Trish and Hilary.

And for your enjoyment this week….

 Welcome to the wonderful WI world in Brixham! For our members this week, we have a slightly reduced programme, thanks to the weather forecast! How lucky we are to be able to make the most of it - a dip in the sea or Shoalstone Pool is highly recommended!

Monday: in place of a walk, meet for a coffee at The Bay (opposite the Old Fish Market) at 10 o‘clock. (The cakes are also excellent. Just saying!)

Tuesday: no walk

Wednesday: Maggie Duffy’s talk at our Institutue meeting, 2.15

Thursday: 8.30 am swim - will it be in the sea this week?

Friday: 10.30 coffee at the Berry Head Hotel. (Why wouldn‘t you go to sit on that terrace and luxuriate in the view?)

Well deserved praise.

 Let us give another hooray to our 1950s models, who played their part in a small team of very hard working WI members to put on that really entertaining and fabulous fashion show. Well done everyone!
